    Default CPU cooler?

    Can anyone recommend a good CPU heatsink/fan for an Athlon 64 X2 3.0 processor? Building a new system and I've read that these run very hot. Still reading reviews but thought I would post here also. Not watercooling yet but it will likely be in a full tower case so I should have plenty of room.

    There are quite a few pretty nice ones that aren't too expensive.

    Just a list of a couple but there are the Zalman 9500/9700's. Tuniq 120's. Scythe 120's. And the Arctic Cooling 64 Pro.


    Don't have time to grab you some links but if you google for those or check out newegg.com or your vendor of choice those should have some hits for you.

    Another one to look at is the Thermalright Ultra 120 eXtreme.

    Seconding the TRUE120. (Thermalright)

    They're slighly better than the Tuniq in any recent reviews Ive seen.
