I'm about to order an Abit AA8 3rd Eye, and I need to know which heatsink and fan set up would work. I bought a 3.2ghz socket 775, and I would like to overclock it to around 4ghz. I'm pretty sure I read an article on a benchmarking website of a guy doing this with a stock heatsink and fan. I'm not going to go for that. I'm not ready to take the leap to water cooling yet, neither is my wallet. I would rather have some after market stuff. What do you guys suggest?

Also, I'm going with a Thermaltake Xaser V Damier V6000A for a case. I like this one a lot :D

I'm sure you're well aware of the overclocking limit on i925 and i915 chipset, but I'll give you an article to read anyways (Breaking the Overclocking Limit (http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets/showdoc.aspx?i=2124)). It'd be really cool if you could get the Thermalright XP-120, if it even fits that is. OMG, I forgot that the XP-120 doesn't fit on a LGA775 processor. My bad for suggesting it earlier. The Thermaltake Tower 112 supports LGA775 and it supports two 92mm fans :D Looks interesting.
