Quiet CPU Fan

[drpje]

I recently purchased a SONY VAIO PCV-LX800 Slimtop computer. The CPU is a PIII 800EB with SiS 630 motherboard, 128RAM and a 40GB HD. The CPU fan is VERY noisy. The fan is a Panaflo mounted to a very thin aluminum heatsink. I would like to replace the cooling system as the noise is driving me crazy. I have never had a computer so noisy, it sounds like a hair dryer on high speed. I use my computer mainly for internet, MP3, and database, no games or OC. What would be a good quiet fan for my computer. Remember that it is a Slimtop and thus does not have a lot of room inside. Has anyone heard of fans made by PC Powercooling or the Molex Silent Systems. I noticed that they were never included in any tests. Thanks in advance

If it has room for it, use the Intel OEM LARGE cooler, as supplied with the 933, as it is not REAL big-it's kind of wide but not very tall, and quiet. Also available at several retailers.
