45-60+ decibels means it sounds like a jet engine as well as looking like one though...:beer:
Actually the specs are: "Fan Noise: 25.1-40.4 dBA"
But yeah, the unit is very nice but its only a 'standard replacement' nothing special for overclocking and whatnot.
Thanks.

Der Lautstärkepegel variiert zwischen 62 dB(A) und 44 dB(A) = Loudness is between 44dba & 62dba
Link to overview table
Table of features where it says Jet 7 is 44.2dba@1900RPM & 62.1dba@3900RPM
It's the 9th one down in the table, lol. :beer:
EDIT - Mind you ALL the dbs ratings seem unnaturally high...
Straight off the packaging:
Shown below are the official specifications of the Jet 7, as listed on the packaging.

Intel Celeron up to 1.4GHz
AMD Duron up to 1.3GHz
AMD Athlon XP up to 3200+ and higher
Socket Type: Socket A, 370, 462

Also using the unit, it does not seem any louder (at low levels) than the Coolermaster Quad LED fans which are rated at 25dba.
The ratings you have linked may be 'actual' readings using a 'in house' decibal tester. Those will always have higher dba ratings than standard manufacturer tests.
