Quietest heatsink/fan

Floater · Post by **Floater** » Tue Nov 09, 2004 2:23 pm

Alright, I'm just going to apologize now for not doing a thorough search, but I need a quick answer. Anybody know who makes the quietest heatsink/fan for an Athlon 1.2 gHz processor? My computer isn't used for anything hardcore (i.e. I don't O/C or run anything system-intensive), so I don't have any specific cooling needs.

Thanks for any help.

Ditto..

I was gonna say some time of Zalman with a 92mm fan on low, but the Silent Boost is good too

yea, zalman is a great choice also, but usually costs more...from what I remember.

Thanks for the info. I looked up the product page on Thermaltake and it looks as if the Silent Boost is made for the Athlon XP to 3400+ processors. I would assume that it wouldn't be compatible with my old-school Athlon 1.2g (?)

Yah, it's compatible with any SocketA CPU
