The Panaflo is quiet and all but does it supply enough cooling to O/C an 1800+? If not I'll opt for a Smart Fan II instead. This is going to be on an SK-7 mind you.
I have a panaflo L1A on a thermalright sk-7 cooling my xp1800+. When I keep the processor at 9.5*235 I have temps (after hours of folding) of 45degreese. Now with 1.75v and 2.4ghz I have load temps up to 54.
This is with all case fans being L1A's and running at 7v, so the computer is practicly inaudible.
I am currently using a tornado at 2.6k rpms and it's silent and probably does 40 or so cfm ....I also get better temps with the tornado like this then the smartfan2 running as silent.......I am going to get a baybus so I can run the tornado at 3.5k which is also silent...I had a fan speed controller I made from radio shack parts....but it started on fire and melted my harddrive and dvd drive
