looking for quiet as possible socket A cooler?

[Blindbatts]

also needs to be as low as possible.

I have tried 2 things so far, one the coolermaster cooler that came with the cpu - it's horribly loud, when I unplug it the system sounds silent it makes such a racket.

my girlfriends desktop runs a socket A with the same coolermaster hsf but I removed the fan and used a 60mm -> 80mm adapter to use a standard 80mm fan that runs much quieter, unfortunately this is too large to fit inside of the Qpack case.

any pointers to what I need to buy?

I'm not overclocking, nor will it ever be. 1.33ghz amd thunderbird socket 462 / A I believe.

Arctic Cooling makes some low-profileish cooling for Socket A on the cheap.

Thermalright's SI-97a is very easy to install and cools exceptionally well wit a low speed fan (L1BX).

It should fit inside the QPack.

L116 x W96 x H75 (mm) heatsink only, without fan
