HS for Asus A7V333 and Panaflo 80mm H1A???

Already ordered the fan, have the mobo, and this goddamn TT Volcano 7 has got to be the loudest freakin fan I've heard, barring jet engines, and thats at its low RPM speed. Anyways, I'm not sure if cap placement and whatnot on my board will limit my choices for HS's, so instead of just going and ordering one (was kinda thinking the PAL8045) I just wanted to get an idea if there are any choices I should definitely NOT consider due to my mobo. I'm running a Duron 750 right now @864mhz and according to the socket thermistor, it idles around 30C and peaks around 39-40C, so cooling is adequate for now, but the fan is just incredibly annoying and I plan on going up to an XP cpu in the very near future, and kinda wanna plan ahead instead of buying a crappy HS now (which I apparently already have) and having to buy another one later due to heat issues.

I have been sorting through here and other sites, but just wanted to get an idea on my specific board so I dont throw 30-40 bucks out the window. A HS suggestion would be great, but if you have a suggestion for a HS using something other than the H1A, by all means tell me 🙂 I'd run these super quiet 80mm papst fans on my HS, but basically, they are quiet, but dont move enough air to cool jack schit 🙂

Thanks in advance.

Just put a Thermalright AX-7 on my Brother in laws xp 2200+ in an A7V333 board. it fits just fine plenty of room for it and cools really well with a Sunon 80mm 42 cfm fan on it. doesn't bolt through the board though. it uses a clip that clips to all six lugs on the socket rather than just 2 of them. Very nice heatsink. Link
 
Yeah, the H1A should provide close to 40CFM, and that looks to be one HS very worth looking into 🙂 (Also gives me an idea on what will fit, that HS is 77x77mm). Thanks 🙂
