Hello,

Well I need to replace the fan on my Zalman Cpu Heatsink. I bought an abit is7, and the damn northbridge fan started making a
loud whining noise. But For me to find out, I was stopping the fans one by one. and.....I touched the Zalman fan in the wrong place, and
2 fan blades broke off. DUh....... Learned to always touch the center of a fan, and second, take the time to pull the comptuter into an
easy to work on position....

So, what 92mm fan should I get, I saw a panaflow, I saw a vantec stealth. I would like something that is as quiet as possible with
about the same air flow as the oridinal Zalman fan.

THanks...

Why not just get the 92mm Zalman? Personally I think the Zalman Fans are one of the Best out there. There really isn't anything special about any fan on the market except the 'Papst' Fans. Which aren't really worth the price difference.

Get a 92mm Zalman, and you should be fairly happy.

Thanks.

I see it, I wonder, the picture shows the zalman, it looks like it only has 5 fan blades, you think thats ok,
the original zalman fan, has like 7.

Thanks though maybe 5 is ok.
