ARCTIC COOLING Super Silent 4 Pro M 80mm CPU Cooling Fan/Heatsink

Comments: Strangely enough, one of the support legs was busted in mine too, but I had to saw that off to get it to fit in a compact case (11-129-146), so it didn't matter. The aluminum base was slightly scratched, but fortunately not where the CPU touches. I use a P4 2.4GHz 800FSB HT. Under full CPU load in the Antac Aria casing, max temp was 52F with the medium setting (fan at 2500rpm). Things are pretty tight in there, and the cable routing is hardly optimized, so I guess this fan works pretty well. I too used Arctic Silver thermal compound. Don't get it on too thick, a thin layer will do.

Comments: This cooler is a great replacement for lawnmower cpu fans that seem to be everywhere. I also have a seagate hard drive and arctic cooling vga cooler (only $15) and my case tems are below 88 degrees F. My cpu floats happily at 95 -125 deg (if under load) which isn't bad for a 2.8 at 3.1 ghz. I recommend all arctic cooling stuff, since its incredibly quiet.

Comments: Nice little fan, has a three-speed control that fits into an expansion slot on the back. Mine arrived with one of the fan support legs busted, but I just fixed it with superglue rather than RMA it (didn't want to wait to get my new system running!). I didn't have a stock intel fan on my CPU before, so I can't compare sound levels. It's a bit loud, but what do you expect? I've got it overclocking my 2.8 gig Northwood P4 to 3.02 gigs at 46C idle, 50C under load. Used this with Arctic Silver 5, didn't bother with the compound included with this fan. Overall a good value.

Comments: This was wonderful for my Intel Celeron 2.7Ghz processor. It took it down from 35-45C to 20-30C. It's a whole lot quieter then my previous fan, I can hardly even hear it over the sound of my 2 hard drives and psu. Comes with Arctic Silicon compound, which I used, and works great. Highly Recommended. Shipped very fast too, thanks NewEgg/FedEx!

Comments: This is a nice fan. It is quite, gives of pretty good air, and is cheap. But me being the dumbo I am. I installed it with my 3.4C P4. Which doesn't work very great with this fan. Not enought rpm. So I will end up buying a new fan. All and all a good fan but don't go higher then a 3.2. I have to thank NewEgg and Fedex for getting it to me.

Comments: Well this is a nice fan for the price. But i stupidly installed it with a 3.4C P4. I need more rpm's for a 3.4 so i will probably have to get a new fan. But this one is'nt bad at all. If u have anything higher then a 3.2 don't be stupid like me and use it. Other wise I would give it a 5 stars. It is very silent and easy to install. NewEgg was great getting it to me all the way out in the east coast within a few days!

Comments: replaced my old stock heatsink and fan for this, incredible difference in noise, yet keeps my 2.6 clocked to 3.12 at teh same temp (38 C) at the middle setting. i turn it up to high when i'm gaming since i won't be hearing it. great product. and newegg rocks!

Comments: This heatsink is a great value, I replaced a deafeningly loud ThermalTake fan in my 3.06 P4 and even on high its still no louder than my P3 machines. The only quibbles I have are that I had to lap the heatsink and one of the fan supports was cracked, but nothing a few minutes with the 600 grit and some super glue couldn't fix. Considering that the Zalman heatsinks are 3 times the price I'm happy
