Hi, i've just got back into overclocking, but i don't know if its the summer or what but my CPU is 58 degs under extreme load. Worrying a little, might need to lower the volts. Anyway, i'm really after a new HSF, one that is not so noisy it gets annoying, but i would like it to be quiet as possible. i have the stock HSF atm for my A64 and i know the CFM is rubbish, but its also nice n quiet.

So bottom line, i'm looking at something with the most efficient cooling but the fan no noisier than 25db. Was looking at vapochill, anygood?

Anyway, if you could give me some ideas i'd be v thankful.

Cheers
 
Hi, decided in the end to just buy a Thermaltake golden orb. I heard that with some 120mm fans n large heatsinks it makes it difficult/impossible to remove ram modules etc. The golden orb is 100mm fan with 17db and pushing 40cfm of air, and i thought this was wonderful. Also it had many decent reviews. The freezer 64 would be fantastic, but it is very loud i think. it states that it is 0.8 sones which is around 26-30db. Much too loud for me.
