CPU Cooling Fan

[AgnesIO]

I am looking to buy a new CPU Cooling Fan, as the stock one that came with my quad core processor is crap.

What are the best makes for CPU Coolers?


Cheers

Might buy this then:

Reckon it will do the job of keeping my system at a decent temperature.

My current CPU fan is keeping my system at 50-60 WHILE BROWSING

What a crap fa by intel aye?

EDIT: Then I see its not compatible lool

Zalman aren't that great, get an OCZ Vendetta 2, I got it because it stays within Intel's weight limitations, is silent and keeps my CPU around 28c idle.

Very cheap

Reccomend any buyers?

Well I bought mine from Aria.co.uk but apparently they don't sell it anymore, it's quite hard to find in the UK.

Will all be fine? Checked it myself, but always good for a double check

They are pushpins like on your Intel cooler, it comes with two brackets, one for AMD, one for Intel, that's why it doesn't show it in the picture and yeah, it should easily fit in that case, mine is inside my CM-690.

As for case fans, get some Yate Loons or Nexus Silent ones.
