Best Locally Available Sink/Fan for 1600+ OCed? (Bay Area)

Hey everyone, I just got my AGOIA 1600+ today, and am ready to try it out. I plan on leaving the CPU locked for now, and just pusing the FSB a little at a time, hoping for around 1800+ speeds for now. I need a sink/fan that isn't too loud (Planned on the Coolermaster HHC-001, but it's too loud), can handle quite a bit of overclocking (eventually going to run the system constantly at 2100+), and is locally available around the San Jose/Santa Clara/Sunnyvale area. Sorry, I'm quite new to Athlons (coming from a 400mhz P2). All the help is appreciated... thanks!
 
I decided to go for overkill and went with the HHC-001. Good or bad idea? The AS3 is already drying on it and the CPU...

I just checked out your HSF online and it looks very nice - all copper and a lot of fins (more surface area). With AS3 that should be one great cooler! More expensive, for sure, but if you can afford it, then all the power to ya!
