    Seriously. Does a excause fan need a filter? I fail to see the point of having them on the exhaust.
    MY BAD !! Typo ... I AGREE SEIKO

    But I would recommend to anyone who has 120mm fans, the thin gaskets they sell for noise reduction. With three 120's you do get some humm, although its really not that bad.

    I bought a fancy 80mm ANTEC FAN w/ leds and its LOUDER than any of the 120's. What Crap.

    does anyone do FANLESS. I mean those Cases and Power Supplies with the fins ???

      Fanless? Not the way I overclock -- lol
      I've never heard of the type of case you mention. Powersupply, yes, but case no. Where are they on the internet. I'd like to see one out of curiosity.

        I have seen the smaller size cases used in custom Multi Media PCs. " Noiseless "

        here is a link for the larger...Zalman TNN-500A

          I'm using the Zalman 7000 with Arctic silver 5 and knocked 14 degrees celsius, thats about 25 degrees F, off my temps. When I was using the stock Intel heatsink with my P4 3.0 it Idled at 44c, now it's at 30c. Load under stock would reach the high 50s, now it never gets out of the 40s. I have it set at the max and you don't even hear it. I also like the Coolermaster silent fans. I have a Sony comp with only three fans and it's louder than my gaming rig that has eight fans.

            AH YES .....the CoolerMaster fans are shhhhhhh quite. I have the Stacker Case by them and all three 120mm fans are very quite in comparison to other.

              Not trying to be picky, but a differential of 14C is not 57F, it is 57 - 32 = 25F.
              Nice results though and quiet too!

                what temp is your house at if it's sitting that low? or do you have some other way of getting the air over the heatsink that low because the last time I checked moving air dosn't cool. It just feels cooler.

                      After reading your post and several reviews, I decided to pick up a Zalman 7000 from a local distributor and it's incredible. Even at the highest RPM it is much more silent than the stock CPU fan that came with my A64. They didn't have the all-copper model so I had to settle for the copper/aluminum version. My CPU is running 12 degrees cooler and I only paid $18 for the thing so you won't hear any complaining from me!

                        I have been too busy to play any games. I would make time for CainsLair games though.
