I can not choose which heatsink to get for an AMD Athlon XP 1900+.... i want a quiet one, but also one that i can overclock later on... i want one that doesnt sound like a jet airplane all the time like this retail heatsink that came with the amd 1900+

I also
i decided to get a

Sony Floppy Drive ($9)
Corsair 512mb DDR PC2100 ($168)
Abit KR7A-Raid-133 Motherboard ($142)
Linksys Network Card ($15)
Maxtor 80GB 7200RPM ATA100/133 ($132)

Already have a lite-on dvd 16x, Mitsumi 16x/8x/40x burner, geforce 3 ti 500, sblive 5.1 x-gamer... but still need the above hardware to build pc... suggestions please

If some one disagrees please let me know... but i still need a heatsink and cant decide... tell me if all that hardware if compliant with each other and if its a good price and if you could get cheaper somewhere else and if its quality hardware for the price or if there is any equal to or better hardware for lower price!
 
I personally like the Dynatron all copper heatsink at newegg.com. its only 18 dollars, solid copper, performs like the balls of life and really isn't too noisy(compaired to my Dragon Orb3+)
 
How about a Thermalright AX-7 with a quiet 80mm fan like Panaflo or Pabst?
 
The new globalwin tak68 (or is it 38?) seems to be quiet because of its 2 sub-4500 rpm fans compared to a delta 7000 rpm screamer. It goes for 26 w/out shipping at Newegg. I'm thinking of picking this one up but the price is a bit high right now.
