Just got an Arctic cooler freezer 7 for my P4 D 930 3 ghz and its real LOUD.

Is there a better cooler "NOT SO LOUD" or can i modift the fan on this one....

Could i run this cooler with no fan ?

If i unplug the fan my system is near enough silent thats how i want it.......

Shouldnt be loud at all. You could run it without a fan if you dont mind your processor expiring.

Yeah its loud alright too loud for my liking. My previous P4 system on full fan chat was near enough silent compared to this.....

MAKE IT QUIETER PLEASE........

o and i wont unplug the fan

Sounds (excuse the pun) like you have a dud.

I would'nt say that, The fan just runs but with noise. It does not sound like a bad fan.

Can the fan be changed ? or should i buy another cooler?

I can feel the vibration from the fan through my mouse on my desktop ?

Looks ok to me had a wiggle and it seems fine

Sorted it now (i think)
Metal plate in case was touching cooler causing vibration.

Still no as quite as i was expecting.

MY Gainward "goes like hell" 6800GS has a noisy fan that dont help.

MY processor Temp in the bios is reading 15 degress IS THAT RIGHT ?
Seems very low. The NB & Power are reading 42 degress.
