Anyone tried Thermal Take's Beetle?

Hi!
I am planning to buy the Big Typhoon since its the favorite here and this forum has the wisest pc users in the net but I was wondering about this beetle cooler. Has anyone compared them? How about that cheap and small Aquagate Mini?
Regards

Reviews said it really stunk. Better off with the Typhoon, XP-90/C, or XP-120. :)

What made it stink was the little 80MM fan & the plastic housing.

Thanks Typhoon it is then. Do you think I will be able to install it without removing the mobo (DFI NF3)?

yes but you will have to go down to a hardware store and buy some longer screws

Great! Thats the best news Ive ever heard. I am ordering one...I guess if I am OCing good with my stock cooler I should do much better. I remember once I run my AC really strong and lower the room temp and my OC went up sustantially so I really believe my CPU has room to go. If you have more details on how to do it or screw size I will appreciate.
