Hey there, looking for a good, Dual-Core CPU fan, spec's are in my sig, i want to overclock to 3.0GHZ, air cooled is cheap, so money really isn't a problem, please provide link's aswell to uk retailer's if possible, thank's in advance,
Peace V.H.
P.S. just incase anyone suggest's water-cooling, i'm doing that when AMD bring out the Quad-Core processor's.

No, best is Tuniq Tower 120. It's huge, but cools amazingly.

Looked at this at a good retailer's Fan RPM is low 2000, will that effect it's cooling as i have seen CPU fan's do 6000 RPM,

/agree
The Zalmans are decent, but not as good (in the test I've seen).. plus, they're far more expensive. Heard good things about the Sycthe's too.

VH, be careful though, it requires a good mobo to support its weight (aroung 900 grams). If you move the case a lot, it is also not that recommended, as it may break the case.

Depending on your mobo, you will need to install a plate at the back of the mobo for support, so make sure you can remove it from the case for the installation. The thing is so huge and heavy, you should install it while mobo is outside. First put the tower, then at the end, put the 120mm fan and connect it to the mobo.
