P4 stock fan

[theyneverknew]

Ive been reading this forum for a few hours now and the Volcano 7+ sounds like a damn good fan, but should i bother to get one if im not going to oc my p4 or is the stock hsf fine? Stupid me buying an intel mobo

The p4 stock fan is great for keeping temperatures down and some people even use them for overclocking. Your not planning to overclock so save ure money mate.:cheers:

For relatively small overclocking, the stock HSF works wonders... my 2.53 ran at 3.04 stable using stock cooling for the longest time until i bought a 7+ But ya, since you won't be overclocking ... keep the stock.

AMD should really work on their stock fans...man what crap!...hehe

P4's stocks do a good job.

When the P4 came out, Intel did a great job at making a solid hsf. They are all aluminum with a good quiet fan. For your situation, I would also have to say stick with the stock hsf.
