I need a better cpu fan, something that is quiet.

my current fan is a stock amd fan and its a screamer.

I do not plan on overclocking at all. The priority is something that will be quiet yet keep my cpu from frying.

cost is not a concern.

Thanks!
 
If cost does not matter then get a whole new heatsink, a good fan on the stock cooler will be all but a waste, you can pick up good coolers that will be VERY quiet on a stock chip. What socket/chip do you have?
 
sorry for the confusion, yes, i will need an fan/heatsink combo.

i have an AM3 socket (amd quad core 3.2 giz black cpu)

the mother board i have is an aus m4a796 deluxe if that helps at all.
 
Scythe has many good options for a low price and are quiet. I have used many different models and they are all low noise.
