Need a CPU Fan - Please help

I've scoured the internet for an awsome looking CPU fan for an Intel Pentium 4 2.0Ghz (Socket 423). But I can't find one.

I am not trying to over clock my CPU. I want an awsome looking CPU fan for looks (Window Mod on case)... All the ones I see for 423 CPU's look stock.. nothing looks customized..

So I ask you all, do you know of an awsome looking CPU fan... Cool design, unique looking etc...

Any help would be appreciated.

You'd either love it or hate it. I like the unique look and, even though you don't overclock, you have the option to. It's tough finding Socket 423....

Are there any heatsink/fan's out there that can be customized to fit a 423? ( I really want to use a Dragon Orb from Thermal Take.)

OOPS! Gotta check the details more:O

Here's the all copper version of the cooler that tgxiii posted, if you don't like the 2-tone look.

It's the only one I could find that fits and doesn't look stock.

UPDATE - Just found this Antec Jetcool at ComputerGeeks for only $5.99 + shipping. I run a Jetcool on my 900 T-bird system, and it seems to work pretty well for cooling.
