Welcome to TechIMO.
There's been talk of the Zalman sinks being quite.
I have no personal expeirence with them but there has been some decent reviews.
I don't know about OC abilities though.
Check them out; http://www.zalmanusa.com/

the 2320 will cool SLIGHTLY better than stock, but probably not much... It's just a SUPER quiet heatsink.
That Thermaltake TR2-M2 is a nice heatsink too, it'll cool better than the 2320, but it'll be slightly louder.
It's hard to say which one would be better... What processor is it going on?? |

glacialtech silent breeze is the quietest hsf combo out . it is 19dba .... newegg sells out fast when they get them in stock .
cheap fans can be found at www.nexfan.com , www.svc.com and www.directron.com has some nice 92mm fans for .39 cents each

Hey speedyvision I use a thermaltake volcano 9 and hooked up the variable speed dial thing.
I'm running an AMD 2500+ @ 2.08G and run the fan @ ~3000RPM and it's pretty quiet. If I run that volcano 9 at full tilt (what is it about 4500-5000) its really annoying but at the slower RPM I don't hear it I hear my P/S fan more and I run temps from about 42C to a high of 56C (it's been hot the last couple days).
I would suggest getting a volcano 9 they are relativly cheap and do a good job. |
