[Solved] WTB 2x Active coolers for LGA1366

[ttabbal]

I was looking at some BXSTS100C from Amazon. But thought some of you might have something suitable in your junk box. [emoji1]

What size do you need?

They are for Xeon E5506. I don't need low profile, but I'd like to avoid the huge overclocker type. That's why I was considering the Intel units I mentioned. The board came with low profile heatsinks, obviously intended for a rack mount chassis. For testing, I have 80mm fans sitting on them. They are keeping cool, but it's just running memtest with a single core. Not much of a load.

That looks like a great option. Thanks!

I've replaced all my passive coolers with them. They work great and are top quality.

There's also this if you want a step up for the sake of silence, but don't want to go crazy.
