Well I still need to get speakers and a decent screen so the cheaper the better really but you get what you pay for, so 30-50 range really.

I can recommend the Arctic Cooling Freezer range, I had one on my Q6600 and it did a brilliant job.
The only thing I would say is that I once tried to fit a Freezer 7 Pro Rev. 2 to a friend's i7 920 and it was a real nightmare to install. I decided to abort half way through as I was putting too much pressure on the £272 motherboard trying to get it to fit.
They may have improved it since, or it may have been a problem specific to that socket (1366 not 1155), I'm not sure.

For Ivy if you keep max temp to about 60 it should out last the rest of your system. with a good cooler on a clock without silly volts this should be easy to achieve.
