Zalman, easy... this is just a better heatsink...

 

the xp90C might cool half a degree better but the zalman wins hands down when it comes to installation. (esp when you have your IHS off)

I went from the 7700 to the XP90C and saw a temp drop of around 5C :)

 

there are few coolers better than the XP90C at the moment

 

here are a few that are definitely better than the XP90C in terms of cooling/noise

 

Scythe Shogun

Scythe Ninja

 

maybe the new Zalman 9500 cooler with the 8 shaped heatpipes...

 

the Zalman 7700 is not as good for the same noise level

the XP120 is not as good for the same noise level.

I use xp-90c, 92mm Panasonic high 35db and run 91f idle 110f load, 78f room at 2.7g, 270x10 @1:1.

Have lots of room below sink. I have taken off the ihs and modded the

xp-90c retension brackets to make better contact with core.
