I am here to tell you guys of a gem cooler that i have seen but really overlooked. It is the Rosewill RCX-2775 CPU cooler for Intel.

We all know Rosewill for being cheap but it's not always the best quality becuase their products all use different OEM's right? Well it turns out that they picked up quite a good oem for this cpu heatsink. Actually...it's right here

It's actually an Akasa AK-965 CPU heatsink with rosewill's own cpu fan throw on. The result? One bad *** cooler for $17 that competes right with the Xigmatek S963 and even my Arctic Freezer Pro 7. If you look at frostytech's review it only trails behind the S963 by .3 degrees while being about 7 bucks cheaper....now thats impressive.
I am going to start recommending this instead of an AF7 or Xigmatek now as long as it stays cheaper than both of them.
There is also a cheaper AMD version just as the AF64
