Thermaltake Crystal Orb a good buy?

[Stryfe]

I'm researching cooling for eventually turning overclocking my system I was wondering what everyone thinks of the Crystal Orb from Thermaltake?
I tired bumping up my FSB a few days ago and it worked okay at 143mhz, but after about an hour things started to get a little choppy. I'm told it's most likely the chipset getting a little hot.
If the Crystal Orb will help prevent that it'd be great since it's only about $23cdn.

With stock fan I was getting 50s, with Blord 40s, with Corb 30s. This is all with my GF2 GTS oc'ed from 200/333 to 240/410. It is a very good buy. You don't even have to lap it. Although I did like a moron...

I actually plan on using it on my Motherboard chipset, not my video card. Although I may get one for the video card in the future

You might have trouble mounting it on the northbridge. Like you will probably have to thermal epoxy it on if the spring clips don't line up right, or if there's a capacitor in the way. Northbridges don't get too hot unless the FSB is really high... 160+. You could pry the old hsf off of it and add some good thermal paste. On my board the NB hsf was just glued on, no thermal paste at all. Maybe your memory timings are too aggressive for higher FSBs... turn 'em down a bit and see if that helps with the "choppiness".

Corb's are pretty good coolers for video cards though.
