For two home assembled machines (an i7-920 WinXp & i7-930 Win7), I use the
"mainstream" Antec 620 Kuhler. Certainly not your high-end cooling solution,
but works quite well; e.g., the i7-930 is now somewhat overclocked to about
3400MHz - peak load (all eight threads) processor temps are slightly under
50C.
This cooler does not require motherboard removal *provided* one has access
to the back of the motherboard area where the stock fan cooler mounts.Price
is $80 or less.
