That fan is so noisy. I tried a YS Tech and a no name 60mm fan on mine. It vibarated all over the place. I solved the problem putting a 40CFM case fan and duct to the Alpha. It's quieter and moves more air.
80 mm Case fan with duct work.

don't kill yourself over the alpha, it is not the only fan for the socket a. i don't think it lives up to its looks.

Hey Todays,
I like the idea ,but where does the air go thats coming into the cpu?
From the picture it doesn't look as if there is a way for the air to escape.
That would kind of defeat the whole purpose.
Any more pics?

I ordered one the other day from 2Cooltek It was the kit without the fan for $24.00, since I have a Delta "black label" already. I am also going to try a FOP32 with a Delta out. I saw an interesting comparison at: Comparison

UPDATE: Copied from my reply to another post:


Here is an update. I just received an Alpha 6035 that I ordered Friday from 2Cooltek. On a KT7/800 T-Bird system I just built, the stock HSF Idled at 55-60 Cel. I checked it a few times to make sure that it was installed properly, which it was. The heatsink it's self was pretty warm to the touch. That was at the default 800MHz. It would run at 850MHz, but I backed it down due to the temperature. It would not POST above 850.

In comes the Alpha, with a Delta "black label" I had around. With Arctic Silver applied, it reached a max of 32 Cel. at idle. I proceeded to boot almost into Win98SE at 1000MHz, then backed it down to 950 1.85V. (maximum voltage of my KT7) and it is happily running 3DMark2000 benchmarks as I type this. The Alpha is cool to the touch even after 10 loops so far. I will continue to test it through the day, but in my book the Alpha made one hell of a difference teamed with the Arctic Silver and Delta fan. I will attempt to boost the FSB later to "get the Gig" I am pretty sure it will. Even if not, 950 is not bad running as cool and stable as it is.


EDIT: The T-Bird topped out at 982MHz. It will boot Windows at a Gig and run, but will not complete benchmarks or run UT for long.
Temperature never above 40 Cel. even after 400 frags in UT. I already transfered the setup into my primary box for keeps. :) The Sandra memory benchmark is an incredible 531/609 at CAS2 Turbo.

I only attached the duct work to the colar that was on the Alpha in the first place. (Did not restrict airflow any different)It may not show it well from this angle. But it is the same setup as the regular fan, just the fan is on the back of the case. And it is working great.
