ok so i was trying to catch up on stuff at work and i rendering some stuff out in 3D max and all ove a sudden my screen goes black and the computer shuts off. im like WTF. so i turn it back on and go right into the bios and i see the CPU temp is 83.1c (181F) im like S#!t so i turn it off and let everything thing cool off and i turn it back on and i notice that my CPU fan is not moving so i go and check it no dust all in it, it moves nicly but wont turn on. The MB connection is not bad i already tested it. So what do you guys recommend for a amd 939 CPU heatsink?

Doesn't have to be a new heatsink, you problably only need to reapply some thermal paste (Arctic Silver 5 is one of the best) between the cpu and heatsink.

it doesnt have to because the fan is dead. and its time to go from the stock cooler to a better one.

i would highly reccomend a heatsink from thermalright. i have a xp-120 and it delivers very good temperatures, pretty much as good as air cooling will get you. other good choices from thermalright would be a xp-90, si-120 or si-128. you could also get a big typhoon by thermaltake. the big typhoon uses a bolt down system which might be easier then retention clips like the thermalright heatsinks use. the big typhoon would also be a good choice if you have taken the ihs off of you cpu, because a bolt down system decreases the chances of crushing your cpu. zalman is another company to consider, i have never used one but i have heard good things about them.

i have the zalman 9500 sitting on my e6600 and keeps it nice and cool at about 30 degrees idle and 38 degrees load, its a little more expensive but if u want quality then ur gonna pay for it.

the zalman is better than the one you posted Tim, but if your not goona be overclocking dlewis then there is no point and spending that much money, when a cheaper one will do just fine.
