I have an old Slot A Athlon 700 mhz that I got from Gateway before I started building my own stuff. When I built my awesome new comp :) five months ago, my dad took that one over, but I gave him some new stuff for his birthday and now I'm using the Gateway as a third (I have three in my bedroom now:):)) system. Gateway felt the need to put an all aluminum heatsink on there, about 5 times as thick as the shell of the processor, and about twice as high. Blowing air onto this sucker, is a 120, yes 120 MM case fan sucking air in from the side of the case. It is loud as all hell. Anyone know where I can pick up a good Slot A cooler that will work for a 700 mhz Athlon (I could only find ones that were garunteed for 500 or less :() If not that, then a nice quiet 120 MM fan would do just fine. I don't think they make the Vantec Stealth fans in 120 though D:.

Take a look at the Cooler Master HHC001 with the heat pipes. That one looks interesting.

Thats a socket A cooler :P I'm probably just gonna mod the case so I can use the 92 MM vantec stealth fan.

I just bought a Golden Orb Slot A Fan for $15 and I am very happy with it's porformance and sound level.
