If you don't want to spend too much, then my vote is for the Coolermaster Hyper 212+. It competes very well with coolers two or three times its price, and includes all the accessories required to mount a second fan. I use it on my Phenom 955, and it manages to really keep my CPU really cool under load.

If you're willing to spend some more cash, then the Thermaltake Frio is what you should check out as it comes with two very good fans, and excellent cooling performance.

Whichever cooler you buy, be sure to get a good thermal paste. I prefer OCZ Freeze as it's really good, but Arctic Silver 5 is also very popular.

The only game where everyone competes to be an e-janitor.
