Below is the best site (prices) I have found on CPU coolers.  From most of the
articles I have read, the new flat bottom Alpha PAL6035 is the best Socket A
cooler available.  It comes in a special package from 2cooltek with a huge fan
and thermal compound for about $28.00 + shipping.

Even under full load and overclocked to 1350 MHZ, it keeps my T-BIRD 1200 at
about 49 degrees (120 fahrenheit.)
