Zalman CNPS7000A-AlCu Aluminum + Copper CPU Cooler
This one weighs less than the all-copper version, and still works on Socket A, Socket 478, and Socket 754. It’s big and won’t fit every board, but it's very effective and quiet.

that's a bit expensive.Quote:

Stay away from that one. It's not a standard fan so, not easy to replace.
is that the x you were refering to in your other post? :PQuote:

what about the thermal take one?
I also don't like that one. Very noisy and I have installed a few similar to that one and was disappointed by the performance.Quote:

looks cool. 6000 rpm fan. wat do u think?
ok. wat do u recommend that's under $30?
Abu, I have the AMD counterpart to that HS/F, that Im using RIGHT NOW. And it has adequate cooling, if u can stand to turn it up all the way.
Im not bashing my own new HS/F, but the thing is like a vaccum cleaner, and it serves about the same purpose.
Good cooler, but its loud on full speed. I will have to plug in the temp controlled setting later on tonight, see how that goes.
thing is my idle temp is rising. and i don't wnat it to. i don't really care bout noise level. just fan speed and how much it can cool my cpu. can u guys recommend any under $30?
well, the thermaltake one says:
so unless u guys can come up with anything better, i might get this oneQuote:
Application for Intel P4 478 FMB2, 3.2GHz and higher.
looks like the only bad review is the noise levelQuote:

and it keeps it under 100F after playing mafia or tron 2, thats not bad. not bad at all. i don't mind the noise. unless anyone can come up iwht something better, i'm getting this oneQuote:
This is the first review I have written for NewEgg.com but I think this is a fan deserving of a little feedback. As far as cooing goes the Spark 7 is more than adequate.
It keeps my P-IV 3.06 Sub 100f even throughout an hour or 2 of Mafia or Tron 2.o...impressive.
It also terrifies my cats, keeps my fiance awake and emits a Jet engine-like scream.
Operating at anything above 4,200 rpm will deafen you...operating at anything beow 4,200 runs the risk of burning up your cpu. It as a real Catch-22.
Further, the fan speed control mechanism is very fragile. When switching from auto-adjust to manual configurations can be tricky.
I am sick of the sound and switching to the Zalman CNPS7000 ASAP.
