coolest...

i think the volcano 7 looks pretty cool

or that zenfu one is nice too

for weirdness i'd go with the zalman

My top 2 would be the <a href="http://www.pcabusers.com/reviews/v7/v7.html">Volcano 7</a> and the <a href="http://www.pcabusers.com/reviews/senfu/s.html">Senfu</a>. Some may think the <a href="http://www.pcabusers.com/reviews/hhc001 ... eatpipe</a> one is cool looking.

The <a href="http://www.pcabusers.com/reviews/z6000/p1.html">Zalman flower</a> heatsinks look interesting to. And so does the <a href="http://www.pcabusers.com/reviews/zen/z.html">Zen</a>

Hey I like em all.

Now i gotta say that core cooler looks cool as hell... To me it don't look like it would cool that well though... I could be wrong... One like that would be easy to build in the shop i work in hmmmmm Wouldn't take a lot of CNC programming to bore all those holes into a block of aluminum or copper...

man, $60?? the core looks nice, but i'd rather get a hooker to stay over for 3 nights.
hehe, just kiddin!!!
it is kind of over budget for me.. i'm lookin at the volcano7 right now, i like the way it adjusts speed according to temp.. only if its temperature probe was closer to the cpu, i would have bought it already.. darnit!

If ya want one that works good looks cool and don't cost a fortune go to highspeedpc.com and get a Senfu cooler for 20 bucks plus shipping which was 4 i think they send USPS Priority. Mention PC Abusers and ya can get a free tube of arctic alumina

Of all the heatsink combos I reviewed, the volcano 7 performed the worst. But then I did get all pretty good ones. The v7 isn't bad, but for the size it should be far better. The v7+ will be out soon and it has an all copper heatsink. Should have one here for testing a couple weeks.

For price/performance the Sunfu or Dr Thermal V77L is best.

Not sure if Highspeedpc still gives alumina free with a heatsink order, but you can try I guess.
