Well most computers are towers so the heat is technically rising on the side of the heatsink so the fan pushing down actually blows the heat out the sides.

yeah, i guess it is blowing perpendicularly to natural flow... hmmm
 
I have not tried the typhoon, but my Zalman is amazing. I could not get past 2.5 with my 3500 cpu, now I am at 2.7 just fine and after doing a overnight stress test will conitnue on.
 
I prefer to stay away from thermaltake, although i've heard good about the typhoon. Zalman would be the way to go, or take a look at some Thermalright heatsinks.
 
I think the Zalman is easier to install so just get that. If you have a cpu without a heatspreader you would definatly have issues because it slides left to right on my mobo if its too loose.
