Nothing beats an SP97 and a 80mm Tornado.
Nados cost about $10-15
SP97 ~$50

Thermalright SLK-947U for $40
PANAFLO 80MM LOW for $9
Arctic Silver 5 - 3.5 grams $8
All in all that should help you cool off for around $60 (taking shipping into account).

24CFM?!?! That way too weak for a SLK or SP heatsink. The fins are so large and close together that they need a fairly powerful fan to push the air all the way down and through all of the fins.
I 2nd the SP97 and tornado reccomendation. I would get a 92MM though.

www.sidewindercomputers.com has SP-97, 92mm tornado and AS5 the SP-97 and Tornado are a little on the high side for price but the as5 is 5$ all 3 come to 65.90 without shipping(not sure where u live) but shipping isent overly exspensive there
*edit* if u get the stuff from there remember to select "add fan" under the heatsink info and you save ~2$

If you were going to spend any money at all, the FIRST thing you would want it artic silver, then a new heatsink.

there is some deals in the cyber deals forum. Check it out
for the 80mm panaflow L1A fans here
Though like others have said... tornado is probably your best bet
(I switched to watercooling and for me to have to recommend a loud *** fan makes me sad)
for cheapest arctic silver 5 here
(Don't forget to put first class shipping)
