will it be quieter and cooler than the stock fan ?

The freezer is a good unit. If you aren't set on it, Zalman has a good array of products as well.

Just a note.
I share a room with a 6000+ and the thing, with the stock fan, is quiet.
What makes noise, and not much noise, is the cooling fan in my Antec case.

Ive heard that AMD put a nice fan on the 6000+...it should stay cool 'n' quiet (pun intended) with the stock fan.:)

You just had to say it...

If you want quiet, find a monster sized heatsink and slap it on there. That's what my next build will likely be. A do all PC with a custom built case. All fanless save one big slow one in the back.

The thing is, how big would it need to be for a 6000+.....

I do agree hitchface, but I can't seem to think of the size...

The stock cooler has a copper heatsink with a 2000 Rpm fan...

Silverstone and Coolermaster are both quality manufacturers. They bot have a few units on this page.
