Blowing out with a 30cfm or any fan with lower then 40db would it been silent. Will i expect good tempertures? I'm just comparing this to the slk800 i prefer quietness.. since this SVC fan is loud as a jetairplane.

my brothers box (a XP1600@1800) has a 8045 with a 21cfm panaflo on blow. it's hardly a whisper, and seems to keep it cool enough.

I have a 40CFM on mine, which weighs in at about 35ish DB. The PAL is the best heatsink you can use when it comes to low CFM/noise fans. Temps in sig...

See phil, 39db is quiet to you because you used to have a Black Label on your desk, and you have a Tornado on there now =P I think this guy is looking for something *ultra* quiet along our standards

dude, you SO know that I'm too cool to read things all the way through. Damn, where'd that Adderall go....
Anyways, I'd still reccomend a nice quiet Panaflo if you're not looking to OC

Edit - rock! my second star! And it only took 20 months.

47 cfm delta would be a great fan for you, not loud, but will cool that chip nicely..my xp1600 @ 1.9 ghz would run around 35-40 C with that fan, but i wanted 2 ghz, so i got the 84 cfm sunon...
