I am turning an older PC into a HTCP, the only problem is that it is too noise. There are 3 major sources of noise in the case, the PSU, GPU and CPU. The PSU and GPU has been taken care of, the only issue now is how to silence the CPU fan.
The CPU is a Athlon 3400+. I first replaced the stock fan with this:

but it is still too noise.
I tried downvolting the CPU and running it without the fan (with just the heatsink) and it overheats. So now my next idea is to try and replace the fan on the heatsink with a quieter case fan.
I am thinking about getting the Nexus DF1209SL-3 92mm Case Fan:

My question is, will this fan fit on the Thermaltake heatsink?
