My Setup:

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L
E2180 Allendale 2.0GHz Dual-Core
(2)Kingston 512MB DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400)
MSI Radeon HD 3650 512MB 128-bit GDDR2 PCI Express 2.0 x16


What would be a couple of good CPU Heatsinks that you would recommend? Something that is not noisy, yet good Price-Performance.


Does anyone have some heatsink performance benchmarking websites? I know of :

I am using this Cooler with the same board and e6750 CPU

I like everything about this HSF.

The Coolers everybody are raving about are these:

You need to look at the hight specs to see what will fit in your case.

My setup blows air through the fins and directly into a 120mm that is exausting out the case.

Thanks for all the replies guys




The one your using caught my attention completely, because it sounded low key yet *EFFECTIVE.

I have a Cooler Master Centurion 5 CAC-T05-WW 1
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119077

Is this cooling case sufficient enough to overclock?
(It only has 2 stock fans running right now...)
Can I do your setup with this case?


I'm going to look more into the other recommended Heatsinks....
