I would recommend a Thermalright Ultra 120.... thermal right has always made top of the line products that are of the utmost high quality... i also have a SI-120 on a p4 rig and it keeps it extreemly cool.... I am going to have to say the Ultra 120 cus it just pwns... but a scythe NINJA would do very well also.
Ultra 120 would probably work well with a high cfm fan, as for the infinity, it likes the low cfm fan (although it would work a tad better with a more powerful fan as well) due to the large spacing of the fins. Both are nearly equal heatsinks, just make sure to get a nice fan for whichever you get.xTrEmEoVrClOcKr said:

nd4spdbh2 said:the ultra 120 is actually better than the Infinity.... and the infinity is worse than the ninja.... so it goes ultra 120 > ninja > infinity... but alll are VERY VERY close to eachother.

EDIT: I am in the same situation, torn between the Thermalright Ultra 120 and the Scythe Infinity (wasn't the Ninja discontinued or something?). I thought that the Thermalright was the best if you had a high CFM (thus louder) fan and the Scythe Infinity was best if you were using a low CFM (and thus quiter) fan. I'm looking for whatever heatsink that will perform best with a relatively low CFM fan (40-50CFM). I want the best performance I can get while still keeping the noise down.
