Need your opinion on HEATSINK (intel 775)

Hi,

I have a heating problem. I have to buy a new heatsink for an INTEL P4 (775)
Here's my config.

Mobo : Assus P5B deluxe Wifi
CPU : 3.2ghz HT, socket 775 (STOCK HEATSINK) with[COLOR="Red"] Arctic Silver 5[/COLOR]
RAM : CORSAIR 2gig -> 2 x 1gig
VDO : Leadtek 7600GT 256mo
HDD : 1 WD Raptor 10000rpm 36.4gig
HDD : 2 Maxtor 250gig SATA
DVDRW : 2 DVD burner LG 16x multi format

With the stock fan of Intel.
No CPU usage :
44C
Regular CPU usage (Surfing Internet, Office and MSN)
51C
High CPU usage (Games, extracting files while burning DVDs)
59C

I need something efficiant.
Here's what i'm looking for.
- Doesn't have to be very very QUIET but....under 28db PLZ
- NO WATER cooling (don't want to spend that much money)
- Looking for something that will make a huge difference in temperature.
looking for AT LEAST 6 degres of difference.

My guess is right now ZALMAN or THERMALTAKE
but witch one will make a big difference on my setup.

Thanks
