I've read lot of reviews about thermalright's 120 HSF, seems like its one of, if not, the best that's out there. At the Thermalright website, one of the things I notice that they advertise is they solder their pipes to the base, as well as soldering fins to the pipes. My guess is thats probably the main reason why it has excellent heat transfer. However, that make me wonder, does that mean other companies don't solder there pipers to the base of their HSs?
This makes me think back on what I used on my previous rig. Right now, I'm using a xigmatek for my i7. Before that, I was using AC Freezer 7 Pro for my E6600 @3.4Ghz on my previous rig. The AC Freezer 7 Pro was probably the best cooler I ever used on my old C2D, and it was inexpensive too. I also realized that AC solders their pipes to the base!

Anyway AC finally release the Rev2 of the Freezer 7 Pro, I'm seriously considering getting for my i7. So back to my initial question what other companies besides Thermalright and AC solders (or claim to solder) their pipes to the bases of their HSs products?
