Where can I get the Socket A version of the Golden Orb before it goes out of production?

[Viper GTS]

Tipped off by a post over in the articles forum (in fact, I originally POSTED it there...:|), there's a post regarding the difference between the S370 GORB & the Socket A/462 GORB. Basically they look the same, except for the mounting mechanism & the fan speed. The S462 fan runs at 5500 RPM, as opposed to the S370's 4500. It seems to me that the S462 version would be the one to have, especially if it would mount successfully on a FC-PGA slocket. Looking at the graphs, it appears that at a 30W dissipation, we could expect a pretty significant temperature drop, simply due to the increased air flow.

Anyone know where we can buy these? If they are being discontinued, I want to grab one (at least!) before they all go away.

That's exactly what I was looking for.

viper,
Do you know of any review that shows this cooler to be better than others? I will be putting a Duron system together within the month and would be really interested.

It looks like the 462 runs at 4500rpm.

What do you think of the 14 May review on coolers here at Anandtech?

Yeah, it says the S462 runs at 4500RPM on the details page.

Will the Golden Orb at the site ccc posted work with Durons?

Thanks

Duron = Socket A = Socket 462.
