What do you guys think about this heatpipe combo. I would put 2 90mm fans on it. One blowing in, and one blowing out. It does seem a little expensive though, $74 was the cheapest I could find it for.

Even with all that, the best heatsink is still a Thermalright. I would look into getting an SLK-900A or the 948U or the SP-97. Much cheaper than that behemoth and better cooling to boot. Thermaltake coolers suxors, man!
Yeah, I made the mistake of goin with Thermaltake cause I liked how some of their stuff looked... Now I wont allow anything with that Tt symbol NEAR my comp... besides my northbridge cooler but you cant see it anyway cause of my HUGE Thermalright HS!!! Muhaha...

I purchased the Thermaltake Xaser V V6000a case and their w0022 480 watt power supply. I like both of those, but I'm not sure if any of those Thermalright heatsinks will fit my LGA775.

If you put a fan blowing in <i>and</i> a fan blowing out you would actually hinder your air flow. The fans would end up working against each other and creating turbulance and dead spots within the HSF fins. Having one fan blowing into the HSF fans is going to provide the best possible airflow.

I am sure that there is a Thermalright cooler that will fit the LGA775. Check out their website and look for yourself. Thermaltake makes stuff that are nice to look at and give decent performance, but there are other companies that do things better. They also tend to copy other companies, especially Zalman.
As for Thermaltake products, I think their Smart Fan II is a great fan. But that is the only Thermaltake product inside my case.
