SK6 with a delta is probably the best. The Glaciator II is almost as good but a lot quieter. The Fop 32 was a pretty good heatsink, but there are much better out there. You can get the SK-6 at www.2cooltek.com and the Glaciator II at www.coolinggears.com

I'd go with the sk6 with a 38cfm delta.

Orbs are not that great of performers, they are mainly there
for the looks. http://www.ytec.d2g.com/emoticons/freak3.gif I have heard that the Dragon Orb 3
is a good improvement but still just for looks.

Thanks for the welcome. Yeah I am probably going with the sk6 and the delta.
What about the alpha pep66 is it good.
I want something to keep me under 30c overclocking a 1Ghz PIII.

Just for piece of mind I like the HSF that bolt right to the MotherBoard.

Like the Swiftek 462A or Alpha 8045

i personally would get the glacitor II series, as u will probably be sorry if u want to leave the beasty SK6 overnight n u want 2 get some sleep:cool: where as the glacitor II can do u lotz of good not sure of whether or not it will do u 30c but with the noise, i would much prefer it.:)
