Thanks!

Take a look at the Scythe Mugen 2, you can probably find it for even less than $40 too.

Yeah, it is a beast of a heatsink. With the extra $10 dollars, I suggest you get another 120 mm fan to do a push-pull combo on the heatsink.
Here is a picture of the heatsink installed:
If you don't mind sound, I suggest a Ultra Kaze to compliment the airflow (3000 RPM @ 133 CFM) - http://www.newegg.co...x...5185054
