When I bought my heatsink a while ago the Thermalright Ultra 120 and Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme were at the top of the heatsink food chain. The Tuniq Tower 120 was up there as well.

I bought the Thermalright Ultra 120 (http://www.frozencpu.com/products/5387/cpu-tri-33/Thermalright_Ultra-120A_Universal_CPU_Heatsink_Socket_AM2_775_.html) with a Scythe Slipstream 1900 RPM (http://www.frozencpu.com/products/6488/fan-383/Scythe_Slip_Stream_120mm_x_25mm_Fan_-_1900_RPM_SY1225SL12SH.html) fan (I only run it at around 750 RPM's) and it keeps my Pentium D 820 (which is overclocked by 800MHz) at a steady 105F-110F (40.5C-43.3C).
