Hey there, I am just curious what the opinions of all you tech experts are concerning this fan.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6835103014
I am building a new PC and it will get moved alot going to and from college. So I am looking for a fan that wont be dangerous to the rest of my PC. I haved looked at dozens of fans and not been comfortable with any. Looking in the <$60 range (staying with stock for now but want to get a AM fan for noise reduction and better temps) for an OC capable fan.

Antec Nine Hundred case
eVGA 680i
E6600
eVGA 8800GTS 640MB
Corsair 800 Mhz EPP
Seagate 320 GB
Corsair HX 620 watt
Samsung 204B 20.1" LCD

Thx for your help in adv :)

Looks pretty stupid. I'd take a look at this; Cool enough, relatively cheap and silent:

If you wish a CPU cooler that could be moved without any risk , and with excellent performance , I would recomend Zalman CPNS 7700 CU , if your case allow to install it.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6835118115

Price is good, performance , close to any other bigger heat pipe coolers, but very safe to move constantly... and this one is also very quiet...
Of course tuniq would be the best choice to OC , but as you need to move the PC frequently...I would not risk...
The coolermaster cooler choice is not very good one...

The Zalman does look pretty good and if I get an AM cooler I would prob get that one or one just like it. Thx again :D
