I'm trying to decide between 3 heatsinks for my phenom x4 940.

So far it's between the
ZALMAN CNPS7700 120mm, Scythe Big Shuriken, and Cooler Master Gemini II.
They're all roughly $40, I just don't know which one is the best for my CPU. I'm also open to other suggestions.

I use that 212+, i grab it 3 months ago for 20bucks in local store (country:indonesia)
using only 1 fan it cool down my x3-720 (oc@3650) at 48max when runing small FFT prime 95 for 2days non-stop, average at 30C when playing Bad company for hours. it was a big jump from my stock heatsink which hit 80C easly in just 5minutes when runing the same test of prime.

Yes, Scythe Mugen-2 CPU Cooler is pretty cool but it's too big.
