How good is the supplied 6600 heatsink?

Thinking of going Intel, how good is the supplied heatsink on the conroe 6600? And which heatsink/air are people using? Please.

Well ive just got a freezer pro and its dropped my idle temps from 51C with the stock cooler to 41C with the freezer.

im still using the stock cooler my temps are these, mind you i have a 25cm fan on the side if my case, blowing onto the cpu & surrounding areas.

very good for stock volts, once you get into overvolting along with decent overclocks it struggles to keep the cpu cool.

As an example it took my pentium d 930 from 3 to 3.8 with a very small overvolt (100% stable)
So its by no means terrible.
