Go to the Thermalright website at www.thermalright.com.
They have the AX478 for Intel and the AX7 for AMD they go
for $ 30.00 on the site but you can get them cheaper at
a lot of the PC stores online.

the thing to do right now is watercool

but if air is your thing, go with a AX-7 and a low DBA
80mm panfalo or mechatronics.

yeah man watercool all the way if you’ve got the patience and money

thanks for the reply all.i think im going to go with the thermalright AX-7 heatsink with the panaflo 80mm fan. should i run into any problems with this?

You can read about the latest and greatest heatsinks here:

I've recently used both the Volcano 7 plus and the AX-478 and they are both very good performers.

A few people that are P4 users had a few mounting issues with the Volcano 7 Plus, but my honest opinion is the AX-7 for you Amd people, is a great choice if your not using H20 cooling...Not to mention it performs best and costs less
