I have managed to acquire both of these heatsinks and was wondering on what you guys thought about each one. I have read the reviews, but I am still trying to decide which one to go with. All opinions are welcome.
 
Need more info. Will the Ninja be fanless? What fan will be on the XP-90C?

They're completely different products.
 
if you hav the space, id recommend the ninja bc it can house a 120mm fan which is much quieter than a 92mm that moves the same amount of air and the ninja directly exhausts the heat to your rear fan due to its tower style

ahh..sorry. I haven't really decided on what fans I am going to use. I know I am not going to go fanless on either one bc I want to OC. I just want to know which one would cool better overall. Does the all copper xp 90 really make that big of difference?

I do have the space, but will the Ninja help cool the MB at all like the XP90c since it is not pointed down?
 
if you have space for a ninja, then i would definetly rule out the xp-90c.

its heavy, and can only support up to 92mm fans + its just as expensive as hsf's that utilize 120mm fans
the ninja is heavy as well but atleast it uses 120mm fans, and the side fan orientation helps with certain case configs

if I were you, its either the ninja(push pull config) or the si-120
nothing else....

The ninja is an awsome heat sink .. it can run in passive mode if you have the right airflow in your case and your cpu ain't too hot or can be put into active mode .. add yourself with a volt modded yate loon or nexus fan for nice silent cooling.
I'm not a big fan of the XP90c due to the fact that the XP-120 is so much better as is the Ninja.
