Quieter heatsink/fan please!

Thermalright SLK900, with Panaflo fan. I use it for every computer I
make/recommend for. Reviews around the web are pretty unanimous about it
being the best cooler, and if you have the Panaflo it's insanely quiet too.
It'll work with an upgrade too.

You might have to look into a new power supply too for a really quiet
computer. Also a new hard drive possibly.

Cheaper in the UK ! That has made my day, I have always wondered why
the Yanks have things so cheap (petrol, electronics etc).

(2.175p/kWh)gbp
vs
(5.6c/kWh) (pre adjustment), (.001c/kWh) (street lighting), (3.78c/kWh)
(fuel adjustment) (9.38c/kWh total)

so that's nearly 3.5 time higher.. Then we also had other fee's on top of
that.. 7$ pm for the street light itself.. Then I seem to remember 2 or 3
other adjustments..

 

Go for the Gold! Thermalright SLK-800 or 900 with a Vantec Stealth fan.
Cool and quiet as can be....without the expense of water cooling.

 

on that one? zalman flower and you might even be able to ditch the fan
alltogether.

 

Zalman's socket-A compatible revision of its impressive
7000Alcu would be a very good choice. Visit their site
at http://www.zalman.co.kr/english/intro.htm to check
whether it will fit your motherboard, though..

Another good option would be Thermaltake's "Silent Boost"
heatsink. It utilizes a slightly alterated version of Panaflo's very
quiet 80mm L1A fan, and it should reduce the noise in your
computer quite nicely..

While we're at it, www.silentpcreview.com is a very qualitative
site with advice, reviews, and recommendations on silent computing.
So I'd recommend it wholeheartedly for your future PC-silencing
ventures..
