Unless you want to go with water, I'd say stay with the Zalman...or I have a really nice lapped AC Freezer pro I'm selling...:D

hey thanks.. i was looking at the ac freezer 64's, but wasnt sure if they would cool better than my zalman? i'm gonna stay away from water for now though.. so its either a zalman, or something with better cooling capability? in the ac64 better or equal? depend?

yea i was thinking the same thing, i havent really seen anything better than the cnps 9700 other than water and phase.. just coolers equal to it. although i do like the thermalright ultra 128..
