I'm looking for a decent cooler to replace my stock intel one which won't really let me get past 2.4 with my E4300 (63 deg load).
I've seen some good reviews of the Thermalright coolers, particularly the ultima 90 and ultra 120 (non-extreme).
The graphs on Anandtech show them to be very similar regarding load temperatures but are there any other major differences? I see the 90 has 6 heatpipes and the 120 has 4 and there's obviously the weight difference of 460g to 745g.
Also there's the Scythe ninja or infinity, but I hear the ninja has crappy mounts (push pins) and the infinity is very heavy, very large and doesn't give very good cooling although they do both come with 120mm fans which the thermalright's don't.
There's also the Scythe Katana which is much more reasonably priced but I don't see many reviews on it - or there's the Freezer Pro 7.
