vantec socket A fan...

I ordered the vantec fan from 2cooltek for $16. Well compared to the coolermaster dp5-g11 i had (same as boxed duron and boxed athlon 800) it is way better. Has a quiet sunon 23cfm on it, and is very large (more than twice the size of the coolermaster). Also dropped my temp from 52C at 800mhz to a more reasonable 48C. I'm thinking of sticking my 38cfm delta on there and see how it does. This i a great fan, i'd say better than a chrome orb from what i've read, plus you dont have to worry about killing your chip with an orb.

well the 23CFM fan was more than the old 10cfm the coolermaster had. If i put the 38CFM in can i expect a similar temp drop? I've had that fan installed before, and its a lot noisier, but for 4C more i'd do it. Then i might actually be able to overclock
