Good Cooler For Me?

[SoSD]

I'm looking for a good heatsink/fan for a 1.133 or 1.2 Ghz Athlon, but I shy away from the FOP38 and other Delta-fan equiped units because I use my computer as a home theatre, as well as a stereo, so excessive noise is really unwanted. Now, I don't mind a quiet whirring, and I don't need absolute silence, but after reading a few reviews, I'm very cocerned about the purported noise level of HSF units that utilize the Delta fans. Is there a heatsink/fan combination that you could recommend? I don't intend to overclock, but we do get hot summers here, and I want my parts to last.

Thanks,

another thing you could do is get a good heatsink i.e. global win or alpha, and take one of those 80-60mm fan converters, to put a nice quiet 80mm with plenty of airflow on a good heatsink

How about a Hedgehog 238M Copper Heatsink with a Sanyo Denki 19.1 CFM fan?

I sent an email to PlyCon and the rep suggested that combination..

Or, perhaps even better.. a PAL6035 with a YS Tech 26CFM, or Delta 30CFM fan?

How loud is the Delta 30CFM, does anyone know?
