Default CPU cooler thermal resistance

I'm trying to compare some heatsinks for use in an amplifier. Unfortunately I can't compare normal heatsinks with the fan cooled CPU ones like this one:
Hyper TX3 - Cooler Master
In most cases, the thermal resistance value is nowhere to be found, except for some exotic ones (0,16°C/W ) : Tuniq Tower 120, the best CPU cooler with great cooling performance

I found one article with thermal resistance values for CPU coolers, but it was written in 2001:
CPU coolers compared!

Anyone knows a link to some thermal resistance values for new CPU coolers? Anyone measured their CPU coolers?
