I have a few choices of some interresting CPU coolers:

1. Thermaltake Silent Boost RX K8 (The cheapest, found it 38$CAN)
2. Tt CL-P0114 BIGTYPHOON Heatpipe (K8/P4/K7/LGA775) (about 56$)
3. And the ZALMAN CNPS9500LED (775/478/754/939/940) (I like the fact that it pushes hot air towards the rear, it's costly though, 79.00$)

Does those a noticable differents in performance? Wich do you guys think would be more cost-effective? If you have other suggestions, please specify why you chose that cooler

Thanks

The thermaltake Big Typhoon is the best choice. I have only heard good things about it. I bought one, haven't had a chance to install it, but it looks great.

Thanks for the reply,

I thougt about the Typhoon, but the design seem funny. I mean the thing, looks big, and it's supported up by the heatpipes (seems like lots of pressure on CPU), that isn't bad?. And the fins are aluminium rather then cooper.

hmm, but are the advantages better than the disadvantages?

More Opinions/comments?
 
its big and heavy... but what performance air cooling system isn't these days?... just dont go humping the thing around when the cooler is installed. it should be fine as long as you dont got moving it around in a rough manner
 
Performance wise the typhoon and zalman are really close. But when it comes to price, and how quiet the typhoon is, the typhoon is a clear winner.
