Hi all. I'm going to conquer my hot CPU problem once and for all this week. I am about to order a "Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme Heatsink" which seems to be about the best heatsink you can get for a 775 chip.
So I need to decide once and for all, the best fan to complement it. Main priority is volume, followed closely by cooling power. So it needs to be as quiet as possible, and yet move as much air as possible. I'm currently using an Arctic Cooling 7 Pro which is being controlled by the motherboard so runs at about 1350rpm unless its under load, when it goes up to 2000 odd. So its pretty quiet, and I'm hoping to match that as best as I can.
So I've narrowed it down to these fans, and I need help deciding which one to buy:
1) AcoustiFan DustPROOF Fan 120mm
2) Scythe S-FLEX 120mm Fan (1200 RPM)
3) Scythe S-FLEX 120mm Fan (1600 RPM)
4) YATE-LOON 120mm D12BL Low-Speed
5) YATE-LOON 120mm D12BL MEDIUM-Speed
6) YATE-LOON 120mm D12BL HIGH-Speed
7) Take the fan off my Arctic Cooling 7 Pro, and use that.
I'll be using the motherboard to control its speed, so it will probably only be running at average speed most of the time, but if the CPU gets stressed, it will increase the speed (likely to full speed).
Thanks in advanceThis is cruicial to me, so any help is greatly appreciated.

Infact if they are good enough, I might even buy some more to replace my Sharkoon 1000 case fans. But the important thing for now, is that I get my CPU temps sorted out. Im at 64C under load at the moment, and its not overclocked at all
