I'm upgrading in a couple of weeks, and I'm probably going to go for a P4 setup, probably a P4 2.26B.

Should be able to get an Alpha PAL8942 Heatsink, along with a silent 80mm fan.

Plus a new Coolermaster 110 case with 4 silent 12db fans should help :)

Its ok, I'm about to upgrade, so I was probably going to go for a P4 setup. I'll get the Alpha HS, then use a fairly quiet 80mm.

Plus I'm about to buy a Coolermaster 110 alu. case. I plan to replace the 4 fans in that with 4 silent Papsts (12db each), so that should help things along :)

I'm currently running my SK6 HS, with a 35cfm Ystech, and the load temps are touching 50C.

I'm not sure it could take any less cooling :(

My Dad has a Zalman fanmate arriving tommorow, so I might try that and see how low I can go with the cpu fan

30C? You kidding, I live in the UK, that means 23C at the peak of summer, and generally very wet :) I followed you're excellent article on the Enermax modding, but I haven't got my silent fan yet, but so far so good. What I really need to do is silence my 60mm cpu fan. Although I don't think my XP17...

Need to silence my XP1700 + SK6 HSF

I'm currently running an XP1700, with a Copper Thermalright SK6 HS, and a Delta 60mm (loud!!) fan. I can't seem to find anywhere that sells silent 60mm fans, so would it be best to buy something like a Zalman fanmate, and just lower the voltage supplied to the Delta? I also have a Ys-tech 60mm, but ...

Enermax 431W - Safe to use one Silent 80mm?

I want to make my Enermax EG-465P-VE 431W as quiet as possible, so I was thinking of removing the 92mm internal one, and replacing the external 80mm one with a Ystech Silent 80mm. The silent fan specs are as follows: Speed - 1850RPM Output - 27CFM Decibels - 20dBA Will this be enough to cool my Ener...
