My rig is almost a year ... I am looking to build a new one.

My money aside... My gola is an IWILLxp333 mobo and AMD 1800+

What is the best heatsink for the coldest air cooled set up?

...before major mods to the case which most likely will be an ANTEC SX1040.

I have had good results with the Thermalright SK6, but if you got some bucks Swiftech makes some good sinks.

according to the oc.com test, the Swifty with delta is still tops as is the SK-6 and Glaciator if I remember correctly to the Pal 8045 with an Orix fan. I like the SK-6 with delta combo a lot, but a great 80mm fan on the pal 8045 should push it right up near the top. The loud delta would probably put it on top.

I got my Rig soundproofed so the Delta noise does not matter to me.

Try the 51cfm delta on it. Just be careful, mine keeps sucking things off my desk. ie: beer bottles, cd's.

LOL what about small pets - I got two cats and what I think is a small dog.

Also, you sure that's a small dog you got?, my ex had one for three years till we found out it was a rat with no tail. Just put a grill on it.
