well no overclock which u cant rlly do on the 3470, the stock is fine, but my bro in law used the stock cooler for his 2600k, in a raidmax smilodon and a gtx 670. He seemed to get higher temps then prefered and the noise wasnt terrible, but he got a zalman cnps 9900 nt and never had an issue with temps at all. I mean he never really noticed terrible temps but most ppl would say for noise and temps almost any decent cooler beats the stock one. Did u look at the cm Tx3? Its small and cools rlly good, i have a tx2 on a old athlon 6400+ which with the stock cooler from amd overheated and never have an issue with an aftermarket cooler, the thermaltake clp0556 just seems only a little better than the stock cooler and i would guess the v1 may have a clearance issue with that case but since u have it wouldnt hurt to try
