Decent CPU Fan
Hey, I'm interested in getting a new CPU fan because my current is just so noisy, doesnt matter if its idle or my computer is running at full blast. I ran by this
http://coolerguys.com/ProductDetails...productID=1133 while looking for something and It seemed like a quite and decent fan for a fair price. Any comments would be great. Oh I'm not interested in overclocking and I have a pentium 4 2.8 with hyperthreading. |

Are you using the stock Intel heatsink with your P4? The stock heatsink fan is pretty quiet running...are you sure the noise isn't from something else?
I'm not familiar with that Arctic Cooling heatink but from looking at the pictures, it looks like the fan blows away from the heatsink instead of towards it...that's backwards. Don't think I would use it.  Cricket

I dont have a stock cpu fan. I know its from my cpu fan because before I got it it was quite. But thanks for that little tidbit about the reverse fan.
