Thats fine, but he only said that after about 10 posts had already been submitted. If he really wanted something affordable, and under 30dba, several of those choices should not have been on the poll.
Id like some of that too :DOriginally Posted by Soulburner
Anyway, after he said what he was looking for (Good HSF under 30dbA thats afforadble) I'd have to say thermaltake is the way to go on this Soulburner : peace2:

Aolgar, let this be a lesson learned the hard way. Don't leave things open like that, rather, say you wanted less than 30dB and lots of airflow. When you specify, it keeps people like soulburner from starting into the brandname wars. Unfortunately, people are always going to fight for their favorite product, so if you specify, maybe you can get an answer instead of an argument :thumb: . Good luck with your FireStar, and don't let this thread reflect the entire community of tweaktown, : peace2: Mista K6

Ok now to update all of you. Yes I want some thing that is less then 30dba but that is not the rule. I sleep in the same room and would like to sleep. My cpu runs at45 C and that is the low:steam: and thats without ocing. That is why i asked:?:.

All 16 odd here (varies with work) run 24/7 (adds a nice hum to the place) but then they're dependable, reliable and doin' something for me. :laugh:
BTW, ya really need to do somethin' about that attitude of your's m8.![]()
I put mine to sleep because its next to my bed and I can't sleep with it. When I get up in the morning I hit the power button and it comes on and its already at the desktop, no booting needed. Its really handy. You should try it if you don't like listening to loud fans at night.
Heh, I used to sleep thourgh a Volcano 7+ on high, and a Coolermaster HHC-001 (60mm @ 7500rpm) but those have been gotten rid of, and sleeping through the hum of the stock intel HSF and 30db fans is simple for me :)Originally Posted by Soulburner

I always shut mine down at night, even with the fan controllers, I dont like the wind noise going through it. Starting up is no prob, I get to my desktop in 12 sec (heh heh, yah, I timed it :D ). : peace2: Mista K6
