which HSF?

[JOJO]

which should I use...alpha pal 6035 w/delta
hedgehog or global win FOP 32E

I'm leaning towards the alpha pal though

plus, where in Canada could i get these? Ordering from the staes is a bit of a pain... clearing customs... paying duty and all that....

thanks for the info.....

(t-bird 800 w/Asus A7V)

I don't know where you can buy them in Canada, but there's a recent heatsink/fan review at:

I just installed a WinFop 38 last night and it works great! The fan on it is noisy as can be though. I don't know if the WinFop 32 is similarly noisy or not, but if you plan on overclocking that t-bird, it might be worth it. I have an asus a7v and a duron 700 overclocked to 1000 and I was getting idle temps of around 44C, load temps of 63C (running Ultima IX for a couple of hours) before I got this fan. Now it idles around 30C and under load I get about 49C. The high-pitched whine from the fan is a little annoying, but I think the extra 300 mhz is worth it.
