| Which Silent HSF should I buy? I am looking for a new HSF. Looking to spend about £15-20 inc. p&p Any suggestions, guys? My last one was Thermaltake Blue Orb II and I need one to be as silent as this. |

| Re: Which Silent HSF should I buy? Not a lot of choice for your budget, but I'd probably go for the AC Freezer 7 Pro which is about £15. I have the 64 Pro version for AMD platform, it's not silent but fairly quiet (of course acoustics are always subjective). |

| Re: Which Silent HSF should I buy? If the ACF7Pro seems a bit too common, here are some alternatives (plenty of choice actually - I haven't included some!): Asetek VapoChill® Micro Ultra Low Noise Thermalright MST-9775 LE Akasa AK-960E Akasa AK-965 NorthQ 3311A UFO Titan Fenrir TTC-Nk34TZ/R/V2 Akasa AK-975 NorthQ 3310BLA UFO NorthQ NQ-3317RDA Red Devil A little over £20 (but closer to that free delivery figure): NorthQ 3312BLA 120mm GIANT UFO Scythe Shuriken Rev.B Btw, according to FrostyTech Intel's stock HSF is apparently the 4th quietest (when the fan is at its max speed). |

| Re: Which Silent HSF should I buy? Blue Orb II's screws dont screw and grip the clip holes anymore  Bought the AC7Frezzer and its crap! 900rpm at lowest speed. Even the generic one from a DELL PC in my mom's PC runs at 700rpm at lowest speed and sounds the same. What a junk! |
