Pcpp checks compatibility anyway, you can choose whatever it gives you in the CPU cooler section. Also, I'd recommend the NH-D15 or be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3 if not on budget or the Cryorig H7 or be quiet! Pure Rock if on budget. 

For dual socket mobo dual tower coolers might be tight fit. Except for D9 maybe. And with that mobo sockets are right next to each other. So cooler can't be much wider/lonfer than socket.

 

Its LGA771. Quick google gives few ebay options for original stock ones. Thats kinda old socket so it will be hard to find anythibg retail.

Thanks for the tip. Yeah the eBay listings were the only ones I could find.
