Volcano 6 4500 RPM for AMD XP 1700+

[Guest]

I've seen the Volcano 6 online for cheap prices, it has a aluminum heatsink, and the one thing i liked was 31 dB and ran at 4500 RPM, it was recomended by AMD for XP 2000+ or lower, I have a 1700+. Would this one work good, 31 dB should be nice and quiet, but I also want good cooling. Does anyone know anything about this CPU Cooler? If so, good or bad experiences please say something.

The real question is will the heatsink handle everything you're going to throw at it in the overclocking realm, I've got a Volcano 6 sitting in a box and I think it might make a good paperweight, but on my AMD 1900+ that I've had up to 1800Mhz I'm running a Swiftek 462 and my processor under load runs at 37c. Its worth every penny.
