That Xigmatek is a great cooler if you plan on doing some high end overclocking. And don't forget to add the retention bracket for that cooler...newegg has them for $9. Alot of peeps post that cooler, but they fail to post the retention bracket which is a seperate buy. The reason for that bracket is it allows you to put the proper pressure against your cpu, not to mention it makes mounting it alot easier. Now here is something to keep in mind, unless you plan on pushing that cpu past 3.6Ghz or your case has ultra crappy airflow, their is no reason to get that Xigmatek. It's a great cooler, but it's HUGE. If you don't plan on pushing that cpu past 3.6, that Asus I posted will do you just fine.

Thank you for the information why_me, I appreciate it. However, it doesn't answer my question. Can anyone answer that question?
