I am considering of buying the silent cooler from QuietPc, the Radial Fin Cooler for my Athlon, but instead of ordering from US using the site, who knows a retailer in the UK selling it?
I believe it will be cheaper than ordering from US.
Or is there any local silent cooling provider?

But if this is the HSF that your thinking of

then I'd think twice or even three times about it as you'll probably find it to be inadequate. :smokin:

Why would that be inadequate?
Do you have any experiences with that one?
Which one would you recommend then?
I chose that because I actually have a Duron 700(@800), but will probably by a Athlon 1.3 or similar soon.

For a Duron it would be ok I guess (so long as it was the large one) but an Athlon I'd be very dubious about. :smokin:
This one I guarantee to do the job, http://www.kustompcs.co.uk/product.php?view=2642 , and with the Duron only low speed would be necessary and when ya get ya Athlon it's only under heavy overclockin' that ya'd use high speed. Up to medium speed on the fan is quiet. ;)

They are out of stock, but the price is much more attractive.
Thanks for that.
