E6600 Cooling

[Jesqwik]

Hi all, ive just bought the E6600 and want to overclock it just a bit but i want to know if the Heatsink and fan you get with the chip is good enough and if not can anyone recomment a good cooler for it.

If your going to be overclocking then you'll definitely want an after market cooler. The cheapest decent solution is the Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro. However, if your willing to spend a little more then you should go with either the Tuniq Tower 120, Noctua NH-U12F, or Zalman CNPS9700-LED.

Out of the 4 thats mentioned above ive owned 3 of them myself and found the Zalman 9700NT to be the best.

I recommend the TT, but you can't really go much wrong with any of those 4.

Thanks ill wait a month to overclock then and purchase the Zalman.
