I've just got one of these or my new build HTPC and the bundled HS/Fan is a little on the loud side for me (It's not LOUD - but I would like it quieter).

There's not much heat to **** from these energy efficient chips anyway so could anyone recomment a decent quiet/silent AM2 HS/fan?

Cheers

Cheers - have gone for the alpine 64 - at less than a tenner delivered, you can't go wrong.

Now need to get a silent 92mm fan for the front of the case - for a purpose built HTPC, the fan it comes with is unusually noisy. Unless it's on its way out - that would maybe explain it.

There's two 60mm (i think) fans on the back also - I've got one plugged into the case fan socket and one in the northbridge fan socket - can you get a splitter cable so you can plug both fans into the same header? [yep - found em - sorry if anyone was mid post :D]
