Decent fan for under $20 AMD

[Guytalbot]

I have an amd xp 2500+ and wanted to get a decent fan for under $20, I dont overclock or anything like that just need a decent fan since my current one just died.

This is one of the best sub $20 hsf out there:

I have only read positive reviews concerning it, it has a decent fan and the heatsink is surprisingly well-made considering the price.

This is what I went with for my Athlon XP 2700 and it keeps things cool, even with the crappy thermal "grease" that it came with the hottest I have seen the CPU get is 44C. 38-39C idle temp. looks nice too and the fan is made of UV reactive blue material. :thumbsup: Eventually I'll pick up some AS5 and the temp will probably drop a few degrees. :beer:

Yeah Spire generally makes good quality stuff for low prices.

Yup, the Speeze/Spire Whisper Rock series is fine. They are fairly large at the fan, just need to check your clearances. I also like the Thermal Ingegration V77L if space is more limited.
