Slimline C2D cooler for new build

[TheKnat]

I'm thinking of putting together a couple of new builds as replacements for machines I leave on 24/7.

The problem is that I don't have loads of room so I am thinking of purchasing the components and then constructing a case out of wood so I can make the case quite small. I think I can get all the components in a small area but I'm still trying to find a low profile CPU cooler which will work fine with the low end C2D processors.

Does anyone know of any low-profile, preferrably passive CPU coolers which will cope with this ?

the smallest cooler i can think of off hand is either the silverstone NT-06 or a thermalright SI-128

Both of these i think can be run passive providing you have airflow in the case and are relativly small in height compared to other coolers

The Zalman CNPS8000 is low profile.
