I had one, I still use the heatsing a nd the fan from it too cool my hdd.

If I remember correctly, it managed to cool Venice 3000+ without spinning fast, basically inaudible. When I switched to Manchester 3800+ and clocked it a bit, heat was too mch and the fan had to work on max rpm to cool it.

So it depends on cpu and whether you can hear the zalman

I guess i should try it atleast, i can hear the Zalman alright. It sounds like its about to take off into space
