Topic FX-60 Cooling options

I plan on getting a FX-60 very soon for my comp...my problem is the cpu does not come with the stock heatsink/fan...i have been looking at the ZALMAN CNPS 9700 and the Thermaltake CL-P0257 Blue orb II...i would like something with a solid idle and under load temp...suggestions from people with the fx 60 and their heatsink/fan i would love to hear from with temp specs...plan on flying with a cold..fx 60!!

Haven't tested the Thermaltake CL-P0257 but the Zalman CNPS9700 NT is by far the best CPU cooler I've tried so I can highly recommend that one.
But you should make sure that it fits inside your case first since it's pretty large..
My review of it here: Zalman CNPS9700 NT CPU Cooler Review

I've read before that you should go much higher than 60C-65C on the FX-60 on load over time, but that shouldn't be a problem at all with the Zalman CNPS9700, even at low fan speeds..
