Hey guys, I'm looking for a cheap, quiet, skt A heatsink/fan for my htpc. Stock is pretty ridiculously loud and I'm limited to what's in my paypal account (wife doesn't know how to access it :D). I have 28 bucks in there right now, and all I'm running is a AXP 2000 t-bred @ stock, so I don't need the best cooling, just enough not to crash, and quiet enough so she doesn't bother me to turn off the machine at night. Any suggestions?
 
That Jet 7 looks AWESOME, but unfortunately, I don't think it will fit into my new case, an Nmedia HTPC 300. Otherwise I would have jumped on it. Blowing 30+ truly is overkill for what I need on this setup. Just need lower noise really. Keep em comin!
 
maybe a WTB thread in the FS section? i'm sure someone out there is selling an old Zalman HSF that you could buy.
 
Thermalright SLK900a with a 80mm vantec stealth fan $10+ shipping?obo!

its missing a clip for the fan though..but i ran it for months without the clip..

it will fit into any htpc case as i've had it in my qbic rig running 27c on a athlon 2500+ barton oc'd to speeds past 3200+

drop me a pm if your interested... i gotta run to the post office tomorrow so drop that pm soon :p
 
I use the Zalman flower copper one, I forgot which one it was. If I remember correctly it was 7700? I'm running Athlon XP 3000+ Barton 166@2.32GHZ. ;)
