    Recommended heatsink for Phenom 9850 & Thermaltake Lanbox.

    Can anyone recommend a heatsink for a Phenom X4 9850 in a Thermaltake Lanbox Lite case? I've been looking at some, and was wondering if the Zalman CNPS7700 will work? I currently have the retail cooler on there right now, but it is too loud. I'm looking for improved cooling performance and less than 40db noise, but I'm not sure if that Zalman will be sufficient enough to keep the Phenom relatively cool. Thanks.

    I don't think so, man. Let me show you how much headroom this machine has:



    The heatsink can't be more than 2.5" tall. So far it looks like the CNPS7700 is my only option.

    I used a 7700 on a Q6600 in that case.. but left it at max speed so i could get half decent temps

    A zalman 8700 might also fit (havent tried tbh)
