I need a cpu HSF for my Athlon XP 1900+. What would be the best one to get that wouldn't be too loud? An SLK-800? I could pick how loud I wanted the fan with this one, but other than that is it a good one?
 
My Volcano 6cu seems loud... it's only supposed to be 32 dBa. The noise might be all the other fans I have though.
 
SLK800 doesnt come with a fan and because it is such a great performer, you can sacrifice good fan on it so you can afford to get a nice and quiet one.
 
I just got a Vantec Aeroflow, I modded a adapter to get a 80mm fan to work on it. Probally not the best, but it will hold me over till I get more money to cool my new processor.
 
I think I've settled on the SLK-800 with an adjustable speed fan. Not sure which fan yet tho...
