Looks nice for a passive setup, but why this cooler? The reviews on it don't look too promising.

cheap and reviews looked good enough for something that cost me as much as a freezer pro ;)


and its not goin to be passive im gettin a pair of quiet 120mms for it

my buddy has that on his Opteron.

It's large. He put two coolermaster 120led fans on it so it is still really quiet.
