I just bought an FX55 stock cooler on ebay for $25 for my 3200 Winchester. I bought it because it looks like a very nice hsf with heatpipes and a copper base. Also, the price was right. I've been looking for some numbers on the FX55 cooler on slower and 90nm CPUs but haven't came across anything. Is anyone here using this hsf on their Venice or Winchester? What are the temps?
 
Should be significantly better than the stock Venice thermal solution... but for a little more money, you could've gotten one of these.

Yeah I was looking at those but by the time you buy a decent fan for it and with shipping it was well over $40.

It's a retail package, so you get a fan included ;)
 
might as well get sumthing better for the same price give or take $5 (ie hyper 6, xp90)
