I have an X2 4400+ which idles at 43 and hits 59 under dual instances of Prime95. No overclocking, now or ever.
Is there an aftermarket cooler that is about the same size and weight as my stock AMD cooler that will outperform it by, oh, say 5 degrees or so? I think I could live with low to mid-50s load temps. Of course, low to mid 40s load temps would be wonderful, but I don't want some 2-3 pound, aircraft carrier-sized hunk of copper hanging off my motherboard.
