In my quest for a quieter system, I'm trying to find replacement a replacement HSF for this system:
Athlon 64 FX-53 (Retail HSF, Socket 939)
Abit AV8 Mobo
Antec TruePower 480W PSU
eVGA GeForce 6800 Ultra
Cooler Master Praetorian Case
My current contenter for loudest component is my CPU HSF, so I think it's going to get replaced first. MrK6 suggested I go with the Zalman CNPS7000B-Cu as a good quiet alternative to the stock HSF.
My questions are these...
Has anyone here ever used this HSF with my motherboard and CPU?
If so, are there any issues with this big thing hitting any other mobo components?
Does it provide ample cooling? (I'm not overclocking.)
Thanks in advance guys.
