I'm getting ready to buy a new CPU fan (mine is making odd noises and I think it's contributing to my system problems). I'm debating between:

1. Zalman CNPS5700D-cu
NewEgg Link-Zalman

OR

2. Thermaltake P4 Spark 7+(Xaser Edition)Highest Performance Copper CPU Cooler,w/ Temp.Controler.
NewEgg Link-Thermaltake


Which one should I get? If you've had experience with either of the fans, let me know also! Thank you!

I'd take the Thermaltake. It just seems like it's more functional, as opposed to being quiet and looking fancy...

You've got it all wrong, you want your heatsink to be quiet and look nice... You see, a heatsink is much like a woman, and... well, I'll stop there. :p

check out the thermalright sp-94 too i got that heatsink and i'm sure it performs better than those two
but if you have to choose between those two i say go with the zalman just cause it looks cool :)
