Which is better, the thermalright 120 extreme or the titan amanda in terms of temps and noise, especially since I want to overclock as high as possible at as low as possible air cooled temperatures.

Which is the best trade off, as I know about the TT reputation, but the titan's results are quite impressive. I would like to know which is the best fan for noise vs. airflow to go with the TT if you suggest that cooler too please.

Any input?

I'm happy w/ my u-120 x after I lapped it. Keeps my q6600 under control, so I would think it would do a great job on an e6600 since it has 1/2 the heat output of a q6600 @ the same clockrate/voltage.

Bearing in mind my temps are around 50 idle now, what sort of temps would I see with a 3.6 Ghz + o/c with the TT and what would I get with the titan?

Which would be best for a case with little airflow, as my case is under a desk up against the wall in a warm room.
