CPU HSF for mictoATX case? where to buy panaflo fans?

[jealouse]

my stock fan on a64 3700+ is driving me insane! it's running as high as 5900RPM and noise from it is unbearable!

got microATX case so can not use the likes of big typhoon...

please recommend CPU HSF combo for my 3700+ that's reasonably quiet and not too big so that it can fit in my microATX case.

also,

need one 80mm and one 92mm case fan. i'd like to go with panaflo. any good reliable online reseller with large panaflo fan selection?

thanks guys!

Get panaflo fans from SVC or FrozenCPU. The latter will add the connectors for a small fee as Panaflos come with bare wire leads. I bought 2 AC fans from FrozenCPU and they arrived in 2 days...great service. BTW, for fans, consider AC as well. They make great fans that are quiet and well-performing, not to mention cheap too...and 6 yr warranties. Also all of their fans have Fluid Dynamic Bearings, which are believed to be better than ball or sleeve bearings.

As far as the HSF is concerned I suggest you buy an OEM Opteron / FX series 4-heatpipe HSF from ebay. Shouldn't cost too much (~$20-30?)
