I am getting a Thermalright SLK-948U heatsink for overclocking an AMD system and I want a high cfm fan that will do a very good job but I dont think I want the Vantec Tornado that sounds like a vaacum cleaner. What are some you guys would recommend?
 
I am wondering the same thing, I have the same heatsink, but I want a larger, more effecient fan. Any 92mm fans that push a lot of CFMs? I'll put an 80mm if I really have to, but I'd like to have the larger fan, sound is NOT a concern.
 
A 56cfm 92mm Panaflo would do a very nice job. I was using one on my Swiftech MCX4000 till I got a Zalman 7000alcu, it was great. <plug> In fact, I have one for sale, $6 shipped. PM me! </plug>
 
just settle for a CFM vs. noise ratio that you can tolerate. Or buy a Tornado and hook it up through a fan controller, and set it at the level you can tolerate.
 
heheh, yeah the tornado for max CFMs... you'll be deaf by Christmas.
