    They are very small and very slim..... (apart from the 60*25 as 25 is a 'normal' depth) - but to shift any reasonable quantity of air they must spin fast which = noise. I am not sure that fans this small (other than chipset fans) are readily available...???

    What are they for?

    That cooler has a 60*60*10 fan running @ 5200 RPM moving a claimed 21.5-23 CFM producing 36-41DBA.

    Loud!

    The site BUFF recommends is a great resource, but the nearest they seem to have is a 60*60*25 moving 14CFM @ 23DBA - deeper and quieter but with MUCH lower cooling capacity.... and by the time you have bought it, it has cost over half the cost of a full replacement cooler with fan and you still have the challenge of fitting it. I don't feel this will work to well.

    Their 80*80*15 moves 34CFM @ 34DBA (curiously the 80*80*25 moves less air) - but as this is bigger than the cooler, you have the joint issue of finding an attachment method and the fach that most of the airflow will be outside the area of the cooler and will therefore be wasted.

    Good luck!
