Best fan i7

[note235]

Im looking for the best fan in the $40-$50 range (cheaper=better )
Im looking to OC my i7 920 to around 3.2-3.4 and keep it on for 24/7 and once in while oc to 3.6-3.8 and use it for a few hours thanks!

Heatsink + Fan? or Just a fan -_-

Coolermaster V8 could be in that range, or Xigmatek 1283 Dark Knight... or a bit more and get a TRUE 1366 which is generally considered the best if not in the top 3 of air-coolers, and the 1366 kit comes with a good fan and fan bracket, mounting kit for ~$65-70.

well i prefer the set but maybe i can extend the price just up a notch

$65, fan is worth $15... normally this thing sells for about $50-60 without a fan so this is a decent deal.

will this fit on a gigabyte ud4p motherboard and p180 case?
thanks
looks like the scythe mugen 2 performs really close for around half the price?

i go with a mugen 2. great performance for the price. sure you can lap a true and such, but the mugen 2 isnt far behind and doesnt need to be lapped.
