I need some advice, I currently have a Ocz Vindicator - http://www.ocztechnology.com/products/cooling_products/ocz_vindicator_cpu_cooler fitted to my Q6600 on a Gigabyte P35 DS4 motherboard.
The main problem I have with the Vindicator is due to all the heatsinks surrounding the DS4 cpu socket its hard to mount the fan for the heatsink, at present its sitting covering 2 of the 4 memory slots. I did have 4 *1gb sticks then changed to 2*2gb sticks but because I want to run the memory to run in dual channel mode the fan is sitting right above one memory stick and not as lower as it should be.
I know most of the best heatsinks around use the fan mounted on the side.
What I want is people to recommend me a decent heatsink which can fit the DS4 board without any problems and also give excellent cooling for my Q6600.
