As the old topic got slightly...damaged...I've decided to save the mods the hassle of rewriting the whole thing and start a new topic without a hidden OP and messed up quoting etc. I'll leave this OP for the mods to edit to their preferences.
Currently these are cheaper (right at this moment in time) than either the 212+ or Evo, and all perform about the same (ie: good for overclocking quad cores or mild overclock on six core):
Nothing against the 212+ or EVO. They are great coolers for the $25-$30, but most often they are priced much higher (due to demand). Also some people just might want to try something different.
