I'm trying to build a small, coolrunning Core i7-860 rig, which uses socket LGA 1156, and all in this micro ATX case:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811133035

The limitation is that I only have 100mm of height clearance between the CPU and the PSU, so any heatsink above 100mm won't fit in the case. And unfortunately, most good heatsinks are taller than that.

I'm having a hell of a time trying to find an after market fan/heatsink that meets these two conditions:

- Low profile (under 100mm)
- LGA 1156 compatible.

After many hours of searching, I only came across two viable solutions:
Scythe Big SHURIKEN Low Profile

And the Cooljag Falcon II

Are these it? Does anyone have any other recommendations?
