[starship_troopers]

i am ordering a new cpu. its a socket am2 amd athlon 64x2 5600+ 2.8ghz.

so what is the best cooler for me. i have a very nice case with good airflow. my current cpu which is a 2.4ghz athlon 64 3800+ single core, runs at load around 32C. with stock cooler.

i have a biostar Tforce550 motherboard. socket am2

edit/ i have it down to three suggestions. here they are.

This is the AMD version. I have the intel version and I idle at 26c and 37c full load. The price is right and it out sells the others.

Some of those reviews are so ignorant it's no longer worth it to even look at them for fun. Go for true reviews and ignore Newegg comments. The Zalman is a good cooler, but too expensive for how good it cools.

You only really need to replace the original cooler if it's too noisy, it'll handle the new CPU in terms of heat dissipation just fine.

And the one coknuck posted is a known good performer.

that looks nice. but my case is "inverted" so that the psu is at the bottom with the 140mm fan on it facing up to my cpu and gfx card. which is why i have 3x 120mm fans and a side air vent.and heatsinks on my ram modules. my only concern is that its facing something to send the hot air from the cpu to another component other than the exhaust fan.  but i will def. keep that one in mind thanks coknuck

yeah, well i am curious because my cousin has a 2.8ghz 5600+ and his heatsink is noisy...his case has less airflow than mine but would it honestly make that much difference?

I can tell you this my CPU fan is so quiet you can't hear it run. If you didn't look at the blades turning you would think it wasn't running.

crazy. thats how my stock cooler is on my current single core athlon 2.4ghz

but with the order through newegg for the 5600+ im just using the stock cooler for the time. and i'll see if i need a new one.

honestly the reason i wanted to order them all at once is because im not 18 so i can't legally order anything. so i give my mom money for the stuff and she orders it. but i convinced her to let me order a heatsink if i needed it.    so im good. but i hope i dont have to order one now. because then i'll have to clean the paste off of my cpu then put new on and its a pain.

but thanks for your answers i have that cpu cooler you mentioned (coknuck) bookmarked. so if i need a cooler i'll buy that one.
