Silly question time probably but how "noisy" is a Tuniq Tower ?

Compared to say a Zalman. I am after performance but quiet !

Thanks,

Change the fan and its quite silent... otherwise it can be loud :)

Agreed, but it is a good heatsink.

Yep its excellent... I've only just replaced it with my new Ultra-120 Extreme... otherwise I had no plans to change it ;)
 
Really cant go wriong with the tuniq, unless you have silly temps, the fan really isnt needed on its full whack. I replaced mine with a Coolink SWiF and now its silent at full belt.
 
One possible disadvantage - you may have to lap the U-120 to make it flat. Mine was definitely convex when it arrived. I probably should have taken a bit more time lapping it but I got bored....

Most tests rate the Ultra 120 Extreme slightly better than the Tuniq Tower but you'll probably only notice the difference when really pushing that overclock.
