Take a look at this page: http://www.frostytech.com/top5_low [...] tsinks.cfm

There's plenty of smaller heatsinks available. :)

Ouch! Buying a cooler the same price as your case?

How much cooling do you need? Looking for a max overclock? Are looks important to you?
Xigmatek HDT-SD964 is probably the best of the 92mm Fan coolers. Cools better than Zalman CNPS9700 NT. Saves $30

I'm gonna over clock my q9550 to 3.6 ghz or more if i can.

is there anything better than 21 bucks :S? something like 30-45 $ would be perfect

I don't care about looks. :P

It's not too bad - but not nearly as good as the Xigmatek HDT-SD964
FrostyTech review Coolermaster Hyper N520 review
Xig HDT-SD964: 18.8 11.6 57.2 (better cooling)
CM Hyper N520: 22.4 14.1 49.0 (quieter)

It's the best cooler you've listed so far. 150MM Zerotherm Nirvana 120 Heatsink
