NO COMPETITOR LINKING!

You aren't supposed to link competitors to overclockers here. It's pretty obvious why.

Maybe it would be worth streching your budget just a little bit and going for a Noctua DH-14, a friend has this cooler and he loves it, Also has a lot of good reviews that you might want to check out.

Thermaltake Frio destroys it, even on low fan rpm - which is quiet. Infact, it has pretty much no competition anywhere near its price.

OcUK have it overpriced by about £9 as well...
