I have heard people recomending

Scythe Ninja
Tuniq Tower
freezer 7
Noctua

Has anybody had any real trouble fitting any of these?

Think I am going to go with the Noctua

Case - P180
CPU - E6600
Mobo - P5n
 
Scythe, Tuniq and Noctura are quite close, think the Noctura might edge it, the 7 is ace for the cost but not as good as the rest.
 
Just installed a Noctua today, made a thread on it. Easy installation, and temps seem ok too, but temps dont excite me much anyway so im not over enthusiastic :D
 
I have the Tuniq in a P180 on a BFG 680i mobo. Only about 10-12 degrees difference between idle and load, which apparently is a sign of a good cooler. I would recommend putting a quiet fan in place of the stock one, but the stock one is at least powerful!
 
I have the freezer 7 pro and its extremely good for its price, best in its price range but if your looking for the best then you cant go wrong with the Noctua.
 
the freezer 7 is slightly worse than the other ones, but its the best value. The tuniq looks awesome and performs aswell as the noctua. The diffrences between the tuniq, noctua and scythe are negligible tbh..

True! As long as they're reasonable then it's all about how quiet it is ;) Going to get the noctua when I upgrade, though it will be the 92mm version.
