Hi,

The Thermaltake Volcano on my A64 is way too loud.. Sure it gives good cooling (~30 C) but damn its VERY noisy. I'm lookiong to go fanless or have a very quiet GOOD cpu fan. I can pay for quality, what do you guys suggest ?


Big Thanks
Tom.

Get a Zalman CNPS7700-AlCU.
You don't hear it when it's at low speed.
At full speed you can hear it a little bit..


I hate you.

Zalman do a good range of quiet heatsink/fans.. Especially the flowers.


But do bear in mind ball bearings in the fans expand due to heat over time and will get nosier.
