Whats the best hsf to oc an 1 ghz t-bird?

[Roachvan]

just wondering.

Alpha PEP66 or Hedgehog with YS-Tech fan.
If you don't mind the noise, go with delta 38cfm fan....but I don't recommend it.
Oh...Swiftech MC462 is a huge HSF that will rock...but will cost you around 80 dollars.

The Alpha PAL6035, with Delta 38cfm Fan is a good hsf/fan for $25 at http://2cooltek.safeshopper.com/1/159.htm?966
The Delta Fan is LOUD! so be sure you can hack the noise = )
