I was wondering if i wouldnt have any problem buying a delta 38CFM 60mm fan and using it instead of the one thats on this cooler master now. I think it only pushes 21CFM. My question is when you buy fans alone do they come with screws, or can i use the ones already in place without a problem? the current fan is also 60mm.
Ill need to buy i 3 to 4 pin connector also. Im really looking at having my duron at safe temps at 950Mhz.

thanks for comments/advice

I think there is some way to use any 60x60 fan on this HS, but as far as I know, Coolermaster still uses a 60x60x15 fan for it (at least they did on mine), so your screws (my DP5-6H51 doesn't have screws) might not be long enough if you buy a 60x60x25 fan.

...and it completely varies whether fans come with screws when you buy them alone.

I have that same heatsink and I took off the stock fan and attached a Y.S. Tech 26 cfm 60MM fan that I had from my slot athlon. It seems to do a better job than the stock fan. The screws the are on the coolermaster are way too small for any of the good 60MM fans you will want, but I'm pretty sure most of the fans come with the screws needed.

I am replacing my coolermaster with a FOP 32-1 though. I am just not satisfied with how it cools my Duron.
