I can vouch for the freezer pro myself...it cools great, not too big, and super cheap!  I have it running at 100% and it can't be heard over my case fans, and they are toned down to be very quiet.

 

Would not suggest it for a serious oc though.  I OC'd my [email protected]  to 3.3ish with it, and it will idle at 44 degrees (+ or - 2), load goes up o 56.  Still not bad thuogh. 

Even have a triple fan GPU cooler from them, and its quieter than my case fans as well.  Love their products!

if your willing to pay for the lapping get a TRUE from Crazypc.com this will give you the best performance right now.

If your looking for something a little cheaper you will never go wrong with an HDT(Heatpipe direct touch). For example one of the best aircoolers right now is the Xigmatek S-1283.

The Xigmatek is any amazing cooler, i will vouch for it 100%. If you need more proof check out Overclock.net. I OC'ed my E8500 from 3.16ghz to 3.816ghz with it. 32c idle and not higher than 50c on max load.

Personally I see no need for fan controllers. But if you really want one id advise against this one since it only controls 3 fans. Id find something that can control ALL of your fans.
