Here's a list of the best HSF's you can get: Scythe Ninja, Scythe Mine, Tuniq Tower, Thermalright XP-120, Thermalright SI-120, and Thermalright XP90C. Whichever you choose, get a nice 120 mm fan to go with it. The Silverstone fm 121 is the fan I use with my Scythe Ninja. If I were you, I'd either go with a Scythe Ninja/Silverstone fm121 or Tuniq Tower/Silverstone.

Yes those are all very good suggestions, also try to clean-up your airflow in

your case(tuck IDE/SATA Cables to the side, etc.) Check to see if your case

has a good flowing fan in the lower front, as well as a nice 90/120mm in the

upper rear. You want to get rid of as much of the heat that your CPU and

graphics card produce. Since you say it's a "server" case, i assume there

are adequate provisions for fans. GL.
 
Tuniq cooler is awsome! But don't forget to add 12 cm fans in your chassis and arrange the wires properly to get good airflow. If you cannot locate those big air coolers... try at least Zalman cnps 7700 CU ... it will works great with your CPU
 
HI first of all
thank you guys for fast reply.
hay i was looking for cnps 7700 on zalman site.then i found another HSF
cnps 9500LED & AT it seems a nice cooler what about that.
about my case it has 120mm fan at rear top under psu and psu is also has
120mm fan
2x80mm fans at lower front &
1x80mm fan on cpu duct
and there is no ugly wires hanging around to block air flow

one moor thing that is i was planing to change my mother board some people say intel 945gnt boards has some power manegment problem is it right.
on other hand wich is bettre asus p5wd2-premium or msi 955x-platnium
 
Zalman is nice 7700 cu or the 9500 just make sure its compatible with your MB. Zalman has a list of compatible MBs and they are p iss easy to install. Get the all copper one if you go for the 7700s

And most important.... they do work they are way better than stock coolers. A couple of case fans wont hurt either and most are quite cheap too.

The 9500 is a great HS/F, probably your best option. If you have a CPU

fan duct, it may interfere with installing the 9500, unless you make some

mods. Sounds like you have decent airflow in the case.Mobo shouldn't be

a problem. You can't expect miracles.With an ambient temp near 47 8O ,

your load temp is only 28C over. 28 doesn't sound "that" good, but

considering its a stock HS/F, isn't SO bad. You might also consider adding

a slot cooler next to your Graphics card, to take some heat away from

that. If all else fails, don't worry TOO much, as your CPU can handle that

temp. Just keep an eye on HDD temps. High temp will kill an HDD in short

order, maybe face a fan or 2 at HD.
 
I agree that, if all you can get are some of the Zalman coolers, I'd got for those. Though, they're a bit overpriced for the numbers they produce. I'm not saying they're bad, I'm just saying that you can much better coolers for alot less (usually). I can't vouch for prices in other Countries though. I'd suggest looking around for a Scythe Ninja before you decide to buy, though.
 
thanks you all guys to helping me out.plz tell me that bying zalman 9500
will be a smart choise.because i saw seyth ninja plus.but zalman waight about 540grams and it is pure copper & seyth ninja about 800+grams and
has only copper base and heat pipe and fins are aluminum.wich will be the
best HS/F out of them.
the socket T recomendid waghit is 450g

They are both great HS/F's. I would buy which ever is cheaper, or easier

for you to get. Don't worry about the weight, unless you're going to be

moving the case around alot.
 
When considering the Ninja, make sure to take note of it's height. It is very tall. Make sure you can fit it in your case. Also make sure your are considering the 1000P and not just the 1000. The 1000P comes with a fan whereas the 1000 is the fanless model (even though you can still attach a fan to it.) The fan also adds to the height.

If you can find one, look for the Tuniq T-120 Tower. It is the cooler king right now.

The Scythe Katana Cu is also a decent cooler from what I read. It mounts at an angle which will also help cool the surrounding motherboard components where the Tuniq Tower and the Ninjas do not.

Like the another poster stated, make sure to tidy up your cable as much as possible to maximize airflow in the case.

LoL. It seems that you've already become a little too attached to the Zalman and biased against the Scythe. If you'd like, I can supply numerous benchmarks of the Scythe doing quite a bit better than the Zalman. Plus, I bet you can get the Scythe cheaper. Most Zalman products are overpriced for the performance. Don't be so quick to rule something out, especially if you're not too knowledgable about it.

Because you may just pass up a few good opportunities. :)
