Cpu-cooler choise

24th January 2008, 18:38

Hey all,

I'm about to buy a new cooler for my cpu (I'm still using the noisy stock cooler

)
System:
Asus p5k
Q6600 (B3)
Coolermaster Stacker831

I've got some criteria for it:

Not to noise (swappable fan would be handy)
Good cooling performance (duh!!)
Price around 50euros max!

Some coolers I had in mind:
-CM GeminII
-Scythe Mugen
-Scythe Ninja
-Thermalright Ultra 120 (Extreme) (quite expensive!)

Any other suggestions or comments (eventually some shops that sell them cheap (In Belgium, the Netherlands or Germany)

Thanks alot!

Best cooler is the Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme, make sure it has the extreme part on the end to get the right one.

I have owned the Ninja... it doesn't offer anything special, and requires you to remove the motherboard to install it.

I've got a Ninja right now,
The thermalright is just to high-prized imo..

Installing will be a job for this weekend

Ninja isn't bad by any means, and at lower airflow settings it will cool your CPU almost as good as the more expensive models

Oh it's not bad, but I'm no longer happy with mine. Pain to use/work around, and there are smaller, cheaper, better performing coolers that don't require motherboard removal to use.
