AC makes good and relatively cheap products. I have a Freezer 4 on my CPU and it performs very good. I also used to use their ATI Silencer on my Radeon 9500. Nothing too fancy like LEDs and such stuff, just solid performace.
If you as me, I'd say that Freezer 7 Pro is a good cooler for the price.

Edit: ...and I'd buy the F7Pro rather than that Thermaltake.

I wouldn't buy from Canada Computers... they're too expensive.

If you're not too far from this place (http://www.liata.com), go there and get the Zalman CNPS9700. Its a tad more expensive but the cooling power is awesome.

H3X, the link should be www.liata.com (you accidentally put in a ) bracket). I'm with you on the Zalman over the Thermaltake cooler.

However, Tazer, which to get between the AC and Zalman? If you don't intend to do much overclocking, get the AC cooler. It's way better than the stock cooler, and quieter too. You could also get the CNPS7700-Cu, which is an all copper cooler. If, however, you intend to do overclocking, get the Zalman one H3X suggested.
