Greetings,
I've built a new machine around an AMD FX6300 CPU, currently using the
packaged fan that came with the CPU. I'd like to replace it with a
quiet device, something like the Zalman fans I used with previous
sockets. Alas, the new design doesn't accommodate my old fan so I need
some advice. What's recommended in the ~$50(US) range ? It doesn't
have to be absolutely silent but quieter is better. Case is an Antec
Sonata II, the PSU is a Seasonic 650W unit, also very quiet.
I'm also looking for a replacement for my video card, currently an old
Gigabyte card with an nVidia 7600GS chipset, very outdated. I don't
need the cutting edge but I do need accelerated 3D graphics so nVidia
is my choice. Any recommended *fanless* boards in the $100-150 range ?
I'm pleased with Noctua case fans I have, and would definitely consider
their CPU cooler, although the Intel stock fan is fairly quiet anyway.

The same site has a good review section for quiet and fanless graphics
cards.
