    Default CPU Cooler Help again

    Ok guys, I think the CPU fan on my new 6000+ has had it.

    Well today it desided to run at full speed and was showing erratic fan speed, would go like 80 - 4090 back to 999, it didn't stop till I turned off the computer. Its running fine again now, but no fan speed again.

    so I was looking at replacing it. does anyone have any experience with the Arctic Cooler Freezer Pro 64 PWN, is it any good for the AM2 6000+.
    Not going to OC. The stock cooler keeps the CPU at really good temps, hasn't gone over 50c even running prime95 (dual core edition) and orthos, and idles at around 24 -27c

    Or would a Would a Zalman 9700LED work well and fit in my machine or should I go with a Arctic Freezer Pro 64.
