Need options for case fan, gpu cooler and cpu cooler

Post by MrBusiness » Sun Mar 23, 2008 12:43 pm

I am in need of:

92mm case fan
GPU cooler for a 6600gt
CPU cooler that's more quiet than the stock 3500+ Venice PIB cooler

What do you think I should I buy?

92mm fans:
Noiseblocker BlackSilent XE1
Sharkoon Silent Eagle golfball 92mm
Nexus 92mm

Is your 6600 GT Agp or PCI-E?

for 3500+ venice: Ninja is good choice or Noctua tower coolers, Xigmatek's coolers or Arctic Cooling Alpine 64 pmw / Arctic Cooling Alpine 7 for instance are good and quieter than box coolers.

For the GPU, Accelero S1, best option and you can run it without attaching fans safely.

CPU cooler, perhaps a Ninja Mini? Don't know your pricerange but the Thermalright Ultra Extreme 120 would be the best, but perhaps a bit overkill for such a processor.

92mm fans i have never used, so i wouldn't know.
