Quite but effective HSF

Can anyone in the UK recommend a decent fan, suitable for overclocking my lovely new T-bred 1700+ on an Epox 8RGA+ board.

My current set up (Duron 750 / Abit KT7) has a Globalwin FOP38 and it's NOISY!!!! I need some peace!!!

Cheers guys!!!

try using a SLK-800(A) with a panaflo
btw, welcome to AT Forums🙂

SLK-800 + Panaflo is definitely the way to go.

My HAC-V81 has been quite lovely so far, and cheap 🙂 Mildly OC'ed Tbred A 1700

I got the slk, but they were out of panaflows, so i went with a vantec stealth. Arrives on wednesday. Will post on progress for you. These vantechs better not suck!

Nice, but it will cost more than the 1700+.

You might have to put a bend in the huge thumb-operated clip if the CPU socket puts in next to the power supply. Anyway I did.

Is it better to have the fan suck rather than to have it blow?

Thermalright SLK-800 + YS-Tech Silent 80mm (27CFM, 20dBa)
Available from Overclockers UK. I brought them both from here and get very good temps.

Suck or Blow, depends on the HS, check the HS manufacturers website. On the SLK-800, Blow, for best performance.
