Well, I am willing to spend up to $100 on some better cooling. The tsunami is pretty loud, so I want to get some quiet fans to reduce that. I also want a new CPU fan / heatsink. I'd like as many LEDs as possible. Right now I hav 2 120mm fans (1 is a blue led) and a 90mm fan. They are all thermaltake, stock fans. I'd like to replace at least 2 (one 90 and on 120) with quieter LED fans (blue or green). As for the CPU fan, I just want one that will perform MUCH better than the stock, so I can get take my OC higher :). I load at 50C right now, and I'd like more performance at lower temps if possible. If anyone has suggestions for these, lmk.

Well, I don't know if you're asking for a different heatsink or just fans. If you're looking for a difference heatsink, I would recommend the XP-90c. That's what I run on my 4400+ X2 and runs right at 35c idle and about 39c load. I ran it on my old FX-55 and when I put it on my temps dropped like 12-14c. I was very impressed with it. I'm running a 90mm Tornado fan on it, but the noise was killing me...so I dropped it down to 2,500 rpms and noticed no difference in temps at all from the ear rattling 5,500 rpms :eek:
 
For the CPU, I'd like a Heatsink/fan combo
For the regular case fans, I'd like quiet LEDs.
