I'm about to buy a Intel Q6600 but I'm not entirely sure which cooler to buy to replace the stock cooling, possibly one of the two...
'Scythe Ninja Plus Rev.B Heatpipe CPU Cooler' or
'Scythe Infinity Heatpipe CPU Cooler'
Thing is... I've not had any experience with building pcs/changing components and I've heard both of those coolers can be pretty difficult to install on a 775 socket.
Any suggestions? Preferably easy-ish to install, if possible.
Thanks in advance!

I'm going to get a q6600 later this summer. I was thinking of getting this cooler, it's supposed to be really good.

Do you think this would be quiet?

Um. That might not be right. The fan spec reads exactly the same as the fan on the MaxOrb, which was released at the same time as the V1. And the fan on the MaxOrb is easily replaceable. I got a posting on SPCR about that, with pics.ck8-04 wrote:Doesn't seem very quiet to me and you can't replace the fan should something go wrong.
