Default Heatsink/Mem recomendation

Getting an MSI X58 Platinum board (uber cheap) (friday)

Getting a 920 D0 from microcenter (also uber cheap) (soon)

Not going to give up my tuniq on my AMD setup for this, so need a heatsink that performs very well for i7.

Nothing too crazy priced. Thing is getting built piecemeal as it is and I still need to come up with DDR3 for it as well (will take recommendations on that as well )


Thinking about finally getting a TRUE, I would only be running one 85CFM ish Panaflo on it until I can upgrade that. Xigmatek has some real cheap heatsinks, so those are a definite possibility as long as they can handle extreme i7 cooling



Thanks

EDIT: Cheap is more important than top performing...although nice balance would be great...
