Quick question

I have a XP 2100+ that I don't plan on overclocking. I want to keep my box as quiet as possible. I bought a SLK-800 to use on the cpu. My question is, will the SLK-800 combined with either a Vantec Stealth or a Panaflo L1A be enuf to keep the cpu in the mid 40's?

I am positive that the SLK-800 is way better than the stock heatsink that comes with the cpu. Also, the stock fan pushed about 22 cfm [correct me if I'm wrong] while the stealth and panaflo push about 27. So by the numbers it should be better than the stock HSF, but does anyone have experience with the setup or anything similar to it?

Thanks.

The stock fan is also quite louder then either the Stealth or the Panaflo. I run the Stealth on a Pal8045, which is a little worse then your heatsink, on an XP1600+ and never get above the 50s. Personally, I recommend the Panaflo which seems to be a little quieter then the Stealth.
