Barton Socket A Cooler

Just after a nice, quiet as poss. HSF for a Barton 2600+ to go with my new Antec P180, as the CPU cooling is now the loudest part of the machine.

Thanks

Top stuff, looks good in a quick google search for reviews too

Know of a fan that would go well with that?

Looks good, I'll have to look into that

I've been pointed towards the Zalman CNPS7000B-CU, any opinions of this?

Mines an NF7-S too, so I'll check into it

Another one to look into in a sec then

I've got quite a list of potential coolers now ^_^

Here's an interesting one... http://www.thermaltake.com/coolers/4in1heatpipe/cl-p0071SonicTower/cl-p0071.htm

Fanless, 1dB! Though you can attatch a 120mm fan if necessary. Fanless sounds almost too good to be true, though the ability to fit a 120mm fan sounds like it would be worth it anyway.

The Antec P180 has 3 120mm fans anyway (2 by the CPU as outake, one by the PSU), so it might not be necessary.

Sorry to bump this old topic up, but I'm finally going to go through with this.

Was going to get a Sonic Tower and stick a 120mm on there, but seeing as the Zalman CNPS7000B uses a 120mm too, I might as well get that, right?

Ta, was swaying towards the Big Typhoon anyway.

I'm basically going be running my Barton machine alongside my new machine I'm building, not gonna overclock this, just want it to be cool and quiet. At £25 quid, there's no excuse not to,
