I want to build a htpc using an Amd 4400 65 watt processor. So silence is the key. I a looking for a fanless heatsink solution. Can anyone recommend a good heatsink?

Yeah, you need to let people which HTPC case you are using and also it's dimensions.

If the case is 5" tall then I would probably recommend the Scythe Mini Ninja which is 4.53" or 115mm tall. This is probably the biggest heatsink I would suggest for a 5" tall case 'cause you gotta remember that the motherboard will be sitting on top of spacers.

There is no such thing as a stupid question.

You might want to consider the Scythe Shuriken. It's made for half-height cases and it comes with a PWM controlled fan:
