Gents, getting an Asus F1A75-M Pro (micro-ATX) and an A8 3850 for HTPC use, in a Micro ATX case (Antec Fusion). I need a quiet fan that will fit the form factor. What would you recommend?
 
Top choices in order (my opinion of course):
1. Scythe Shuriken or Big Shuriken
2. Scythe Kozuti
3. Zalman CNPS-8000A
4. Thermalright AXP-140 (maybe overkill and maybe too tall with fan on it)
5. Silverstone NT01 (may not be optimal with the fan layout in that case)

Also, which Antec Fusion is it? The micro fusion, regular Fusion, or the Fusion Max? If its the micro fusion, I would only recommend the Scythe Kozuti or the Zalman CNPS-800A.

Thanks Cap'n...believe it is a regular Fusion...checking out the scythes now. Think there should be enough room in there for a big shuriken?
 
Kozuti should be able to fit anything. Big Shuriken is notorious for blocking some DIMM slots. And might as well getting a full tower heatsink if you are getting AXP-1400...
 
The Llano runs so cool you dont need a huge heatsink, just find a quiet fan. I did my review using an old Arctic cooling Freezer 64 pro. Very quiet and kept the chip plenty cool.
