Anyone have good or bad experieinces with these coolers with the mag tip fans?
 
They're very solid coolers, but a lot of people have had their TMD fans fail without warning. It's a good cooler to look at if you've got a window. If I were in the situation, I'd get the VA4-7245, also known as the Aeroflow2. While it may not have the TMD fan and it's advantages, the fan on that heatsink is more reliable, and the heatsink itself offers much more surface area. You can remove the dinky fan grille if you want. I recommend the Aeroflow2.

I've got one and it's a decent cooler. It's not for hardcore overclocking, but it looks good, cools reasonably well, was simple to install, fairly quiet and didn't cost an arm and leg.
