31.5dB HeatsinkFan Volcano II seems kinda loud...

31.5dB HeatsinkFan Volcano II Socket A seems kinda loud...

31.5dB seemed better than the other 38dB Coolermaster fans at newegg

but it seems kinda loud?

I think I would go crazy if I had a delta fan

I guess I am used to my wimpy celeron heatsinkfan that was a little less quieter but cooled horribly..

Is this as quiet (31.5dB?) as heatsink fans get?

Can anyone recommend a much quieter HSF?

------------------
Duron 850
ECS K7S5A
Enlight 7237
128mb pc100 ram
Two Maxtor 15gb 7200rpm hds
52x CD-ROM
2x2x4 Acer CD ReWriter
Gigabyte TNT2 M64 32mb
TV Tuner Card

That's pretty good for a highspeed fan. Remember, these fans are running between 5000 and 7000 RPM. The quietest fans I know of are Panaflo fans. You can get them at www.pcmods.com

I have one...and it seems alright....

Moving air at just shy of 20CFM?

No thanks. I'm fine with my Delta screamer https://www.sharkyforums.com/images/.../2005/08/2.gif
