The Zalman CNPS7700-CU is a very well performing one and silent. It's the most expensive in the series but I would recommend it infront of the others.

Although the Zalman's are very popular, they can't handle the heat from the prescott's core very well, i wouldn't recommend one for p4.
The ultimate in prescott cooling combined with SILENCE is the xp-120 from thermalright. It's a monster in size take a look.

Look at it's size, it has a 120mm fan (thermalright sells only the fin, but there are combos on the market)

Edit:
uh, i confused the two zalmans, the CNPS7700Cu is actually good:

If you happen to be german, here is a comparison between the two coolers and on the second page is a chart, too bad they used a very crappy fan for the xp-120, they said they wanted to make the comparison fair for the zalman. But there is the point in buying a xp-120 and then getting a crappy fan, lol

Ehhr??? I would never buy such a cpu cooler. Just buy a water cooling set. You can get very good ones for 200-300$, like the Waterchill kits. With todays hot processors I would never consider air cooling. Personally I only use water.

whoknows, If we're talking about great big coolers check the Asus Star ice cooler. I saw it on the expo. Looks like a jet engine:

tomshardware has a review of the asus star ice cooler. They were not that impressed, mainly because the noise level was too high.

Ooops Sorry....I bought it from one of my friends a year ago and found out it was one of those when I decided to clean it out one day.

I hope it will last long considering its a ES.
