Recommended Fan + Heatsink??

[kladal]

Hi,

I have a Q9550 with an EVGA 750i MOBO. I was wondering what heatsink + fan combo would you all recommend for OC'ing? Also, please let me know if I should get arctic silver / tx-2 or if the heatsink + fan already have their own.

I want to make sure whatever I do go with does not interfere with installing other items on my MOBO (i.e. RAM slots, etc.)

Thank you!

Here is a link to a web site with lots of very useful information about cpu heatsinks:

Generally speaking cpu heatsinks usually come with some sort of thermal compound. The type of compound varies by manufacturer.
