well i've done some searching and i know that a zalman 7000 and 7700 can fit in a qpack both those are pretty loud for my tastes. and an xp-90 can fit as well, but it needs some modding. so whats a good replacement for the stock unit that will easily fit in a qpack?

I have a 7000 and mine quiet as hell. And thats without a fanmate.
 
CNPS-7000 with the included rheostat cranked ALL the way down worked fine for me.

Still cooled fairly well, too - had an AMD Athlon64 '3200+' Prime95 stable at 2.4ghz.
 
I'm using a 120mm Thermaltake Blue Orb2 in my SG01 and it works very well and is fairly quiet.

Here is a pic of my old X-Qpack config with a Zalman 7000, it was somewhat quieter than teh 7700 which also fit.

If you were to use like Corsair Xpert Memory or taller memory with the LED's would it hit the CPU heatsink?
