anyways i just want some suggestions, thanks

If silence is what you desire, then you should get the Zalman CNPS7000AlCu. (http://www.zalman.co.kr/eng/product/view.asp?idx=79&code=009)

Another vote for the Zalman :) Go for the full copper if you can.(see sig)

Keep the HS. Shop here for a nice 80mm Papst!

it cant take 80mm fans

you might as well get another fan...
but if you want a totally new sink, go for a nice quiet 92MM fan and a swiftech sink.

thanks for the reply's everyone i apreciate it. i rigged a 80mm case on top of my heat sink with a rubber and some inginuity. b4 my idle temps were like 44-50c, now it's like 38c and it's not even on straight. ill leave it like this til i get enough money to go the water route, unless i see a deal somewhere
