Good Socket HSF For Under $30?

[Guest]

I was just looking for suggestions on a HSF for a 1.2 Ghz 266 FSB Tbird that I'm gonna buy here in a few days. I want it to be pretty affordable though.

It's better to be pissed off than pissed on

For your budget, I would recommend either the FOP32-1 or the FOP38 (hope you don't mind the noise). They both can be had for a bit over 20 bucks.

right on I have fop32 it cost me about $20 you can get a fop38 for about $25 but I didn't want the extra noise but now i am puting more a 120mm fan and some more 80's so the hell with that idea. Doen't the fop38 put out 45db or something like that?

Well i considered the FOP32-1 (and i don't like noisy fans, i allready have a noisy computer with 9 fans in total ) for a while.

But because of the fact that it was almost impossible to get it here without ordering abroad and ALL Thermaltake products are easy to buy here, and i saw a couple of reviews at Anandtech say the Tt Volcano II has FOP32-FOP38 performance (more near FOP32) and it's rather quite because it has low CFM fan, and also because if you put a Delta 7000 it can perform as the FOP38, i ordered one.

It arrives Tuesday, hope it lives to expectations, anyone has one ?
