need opinions on heatsinks
need to know which one is better: http://www.frozencpu.com/cgi-bin/fro...pu-tri-04.html Thermalright SLK-948U
http://www.frozencpu.com/cgi-bin/fro...pu-tri-13.html Thermalright XP-90 i know that the copper heatsink should cool better but the aluminum one has heatpipes and also is lighter and i am unsure of how much weight can be handled by my MoBo. am i crazy for trying to hit 4ghz on air cooling?

Can your Motherboard fit the XP-120? THAT is a heatsink. I'd recommend that one, but if you can't do that then I'd go with copper. And yes, 4 GHz on air is impossible. That would be tough on water-cooling as well though it could be done. The only way you'd be guaranteed to hit the 4 GHz mark is with Peltier or Phase Change cooling.

then again, with that 3.2EE it would be damn hard to get 4 on air

i wouldn't be to suprised on a 3.6 because you only have to run at 223 FSB i think. on the 3.2E i have, i'll have to run at 250. hmm i hope i can a least get to 3.8 or around 40-50C at 3.6

Raising the FSB doesn't raise CPU temps as much as raising the vcore voltage does.

Between those two heatsinks, you should go with the XP-120 as UG said.
