The 350 is quite restrictive if he's hoping to expand later on, so the GTZ would be a better deal,
and if it ever comes in stock he can always grab the LT version (which has the same base as the CU) of the Heatkiller which is the same price as a GTZ (65) from sidewinder 59.99 (the am2->775 enzotech bracket is only 5bucks) =65
better yet if he gets the HK3.0 LC from perf pcs, it's only 55 w/ the adapter and still better than GTZ
He's using AM2 so he won't need a 775 backplate w/ that adapter.
If he's going low rpm on the fans he's better off saving 1/2 the costs and using the swiftech rad since they're only 1-2C apart in the 500-1200rpm range Yate Loons
Not trying to rip, but if you recommend him to go w/ a XSPC or GTX rad, and deal w/ the costs of going higher w/ a rad... I'm sure he can do the same for a cpu block imho.
