I'm going to purchase this heatsink for about 45 cdn this week. have a 1.0ghz t-bird. Are there any other recommendations besides Global Win? I 'm new to HSF installation and I hate to crack the core!
Thanks.
P.s. I heard that the Thermalright SK-6 is pretty good but it cost 49 cdn without the fan!
 
I have one (well it was a wbk 68, but i changed the fan for a delta wich makes it a 38) on a 1,2Ghz 266 running at 1,33 (133x10). I get about 34-38 C idle depending on room temp. The good thing though is that it never gets over 45 C under load (SETI@Home for 5 hrs). The bad thing is that it seems to take quite some time for it do unload the heat and go back down to idle temp

The Global Win is a desent fan - but if you want to do any serious overclocking the ThermalRight is one of the best.
