For those that are wondering what I linked him,
Coolermaster TPC 812.

If you plan on doing any amount of overclocking, you should get something with a 240mm radiator.

I kind of agree. I use the Noctua NH-14 cooler and it cools as well as anything I've seen. It's huge, but it works.

You need a clearance between the CPU surface and the side case of over 160mm - not everyone has that kind of case.

Actually a huge help, since you also were the only one to take into account case size, which is a HUGE difference. I wish that review DV Mckenna posted had the Kuhler in it, just because I am curious how it would stack up. And will definitely look into the fans. Sound quality and noise levels ARE a big deal to me. I haven't really been able to build a custom sound system for my computer, though I will in time. Right now all I have is one of these I got on the cheap http://www.newegg.co...82E16836166004. Also, since I have my case sitting high up for better air circulation, I am still experimenting with ways to isolate and remove any vibration. Right now it sits on a piece of carpet on top of an old anti static pad, which seems to work pretty good, though it's not all that appealing to the eye.

Glad I can help man. Let me know how it works for you.
