Akasa Venom Voodoo
Akasa adds dual fans to its Venom Voodoo to increase air velocity and cooling capacity. The speed of both fans can be controlled from a single motherboard header thanks to the included PWM-capable splitter.
The installation kit welcomes users of earlier platforms as well, though it installs the wrong way on most AMD boards, facing either up or down rather than left/right.

this is a joke right..???
COOLER MASTER V6 GT is one of the if not the best price/performance Cpu cooler ou there.
Got mine for only 39.99$ !!!! on Holidays

wow, you could have spent less and got a Hyper 212 Evo, which cools just as well, if not better.
"We will make sure each of those gaps is filled with Zalman silver thermal paste during our UPCOMING PERFORMANCE EVALUATION."
in the last page.
Make it more practical than that.
Bought it a month back and doesnt disappoint me a bit when it comes to cooling my 955 BE....
If so then add water cooling kits: Corsair H100, Intel BXRTS2011LC, Swiftech EDGE, Ek H30 360 HFX, etc; see -> http://www.frozencpu.com/cat/l2/g30/c321/list/p1/Liquid_Cooling-Water_Cooling_Kits_-_Brands.html
Most folks with LGA 2011 are doing some form of water cooling.
The devs must have been busy.
Looking forward to the second article with the benchies mate.
If you can comment on the ease of retention mechanism / fittings for these that would also be great.
I recall the mongrel retention system on those early thermaltake coolers ... mine went to the tip via a "hammer session" after the umpeenth time taking it off and struggling to put the damned thing back on.
Sometimes breaking something can be sooo cathartic.
the deepcool looks promising and i've heard good things about phanteks (though they're a bit flamboyant imo).
The manufacturers must be anticipating a lot of suckers are going to buy into s2011.
+1 true that ^
Probably will get down-rated
