The Ninja is excellent, especially if overclocking

Another good & reasonably price one is the Arctic Cooling Freezer 64 Pro CPU Cooler (Socket 754/939/940) (FG-000-AR)

The Freezer 64 Pro should easily suit your needs, I just reluctantly got rid of mine with the migration to Core 2.

The Artic is supposed to be quite loud at higher RPM, wheras the supplied 12cm with the Ninja is 1200rpm, so it's silent. You could replace it with a Delta or another other 12cm fan.

Freezer 64 Pro is a good cooler and very quiet for my A64 4000+ SD at stock 2.4 GHz speeds, but when I overclock to 3 GHz, the F64Pro does become more noticeable as it pushes up into the 1600-1800 rpm range, although it's never 'loud'. Still, it is only £16.

If you don't mind spending £37 go for the Ninja. Just check it fits your board with the fan on and remember you have to take your board out to install it.

Thanks guys i think you have helped me make my mind up and go for the ninja as i have blue leds in my system and can change the fan.

Thanks

the new asus silent sqaure pro looks funkeh. also as *** origional could pretty much keep up with the ninja (well nearly) the new one should be pretty good also
