its the Vantec SI5-6025...i need a fan for my K6-3 333mhz and this was one that AMD approved...if anyone has anything to say about it please let me know...its $20, if you have a fan that is just as good for a cheaper price please tell me about it...

oh yeah, i don't plan to really overclock it except to go to 350mhz so i can use 100mhz FSB...TIA

i ALWAYS buy from 2cooltek, they ship USPS, but they are prompt and seem like genuinely honest ppl.
good prices too

They are EXTREMELY reasonable on shipping. In fact they are much cheaper than the cutthroats at Pricewatch (cheap prices OUTRAGEOUS shipping).

2cool was started by a guy who often posted here, if you are asking if he can be trusted, you haven't been here very long........hehehe. Ya he can be trusted, and I think he still only charges ACTUAL shipping cost, which for two of those, it won't be much.

well i already bought the two fans from 2cool...it only cost $4.35 on the two fans...thanks for the link Tonec...

darth maul: who is he? what's his username? i've been here since the old UBB days, but i'm usually in the Off Topic forum...

well thanks for all the help guys...i got the two fans for only $25.35 and no tax! if i bought it from the company here by my house it would have cost me $19.95 PLUS tax and it would have been for only one. :D

EDIT: $4.35 for the shippin i mean...

dammit...i just realized i could have bought my 2 case fans from him as well...he sold them $2 cheaper...but since i already ordered from him, i would have to pay a separate shipping cost and it would offset the extra $2 i already paid...i could have saved $5 (no my math isn't wrong, you gotta think about shipping from 2cool and the tax i paid from fry's)...that's 2 meals! :D

I think it is the Post Office that causes the delays in package tracking. I found it is usually about 3 days before a USPS tracking number shows up. In many cases I have the package before I can track it online. Tuesday I ordered form 2cooltek and Team Awe, both shipping Priority mail. Even though my Awe order was shipped Wednesday it didn't show up in tracking until Friday Night. I got my 2cooltek order Thursday and it just showed up in tracking too. Anyway both places are great to order from, and they accept Paypal.

Another vote of confidence here for 2cooltek. Have gotten great service every time I have ordered anything from him.

He has his own little forum (message board) on his site, which is where he hangs around a lot if you wanna talk to him. Seems like a pretty kewl guy.

I really need to wander over this way more often... helps to keep motivated hearing kind words.

As for the USPS tracking... ugh. They are killin me, and I am still trying to fix that issue.
