I have used the Thermaltake Big Typhoon with my 840 @ 3.840Ghz on 1.40 volts with 45c idle and 50c full load at 32c room temp. Thing is it's pretty huge and may not fit in slimmer or smaller cases. Im using Thermaltake Kandalf full tower case by the way.

I second on getting a Big Typhoon. It is the best air cooling solution I've ever seen.
I was thinking about the Thermalright SI-128, get a kick ass fan on it, and perhaps it would be almost as good as the holy "Tuniq Tower 120" ... err, perhaps not, lol
Another bang-for-your-buck vote for the Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro. Absolutely awesome for a $20 (newegg) heatsink. Mine keeps the flamethrowing D805 at a nice 27C and 41-43C under load for extended periods of time. My ambient is relatively cool ranging from 20-25C but temp of the overclocked D805 is usually about 6C over ambient. My case also has very good airflow with a duct-mod to pull cool air in right to the processor, but it is a great heatsink if you dont want to spend too much!
Which fan/heatsink should I replace my crappy Intel E33681-001 LGA 775 Aluminum Heatsink 4 Pin with? I have a normal case, just got it in June 2009. Thx! Recommend me one that is silent please!
