    Indeed, it's only 1920x1200 and above that my solo 3870 really encountered issues - with the exception of a couple of games...

    The Xigmatek seems to fare about as well as the Ultra-120A I have. I got mine for quite cheap, about the price the Xigmatek goes for. You may as well go with whichever you can most easily get hold of.

    the vandetta 2 is up there with the tuniq tower and Noctua NF-p12 and TRUE.

    dont get the ACF7P itll limit OCing, and can be loud

    Indeed, the Freezer 7's good for the price, but the Xigma, TRUE, Noctua, Scythe and Tuniq 120mm coolers are in a different league.

    Put it this way, my temps are nearly 10 degrees Celcius lower with a TRU-A (not even the extreme) with no fan at all than with the freezer running at maximum speed, a noisy max speed at that.

    no, the Scythe Ninja.
    The coolers I'm referring to are:
    Thermalright Ultra-120 (A or Extreme)
    Scythe Ninja
    Noctua NH-U12
    Tuniq Tower
