K8 HeatSinkFan need suggestion.

Good day bros and sis!

I'm planning to buy a HeatSinkFan for my K8 Setup (Sempron64), I'm getting annoyed by the noise that the stock AMD HSF produced. Which HSF should be the best buy and is locally available here in Cebu? My budget is only 1,500 below. I'm looking at ThermalTake Blue Orb II as a candidate for the buy (http://www.thermaltake.com/coolers/c...cl-p0257-2.htm), its around 1,500 at rsuncomputers (www.rsuncomputers.com).

Please enlighten me with your suggestions and experience. Thanks!


Please kindly post also your current HSF and the operating temps (stock, load). A little survey... Thanks...

Yes it avalable in cebu, PM crashburn he told me he had one a few weeks ago

i got my golden orb 2 last year from crashburn for 1600. the blue orb could be a little expensive than 1500.

Ahh okay thanks guys, Blue orb II is priced 1500 at rsuncomputers, I'm still thinking about the freight charges upon shipping here in Cebu.

@fish: What are your temps using the golden orb bro?

@bossdak: Nice temps you have there for a passive HS, how much is it? Is it a Golden Orb without fan?

[EarlZ]

150 ang charge sa jrsexpress ana, i got my Tt bigtyphoon there.

[marcus_aurelius]

Ohh I see, how about the payment for the item bro EarlZ? Is it a bank to bank transaction, how much is it? Thanks...

[bossdak]

akong gi tangtangan ug fan kay mag-ilog sa hangin ang psu ug ang golden orb. ga atbang ang duha ka fan kay sg01 man gud ni akong case.

[marcus_aurelius]

@bossdak Ohh I see your temp will be much lower when the fan is attached. How about the stock HSF of your X2, is it any good bro? Thanks...

stock heatsink kay murag vacuum cleaner. saba kaayo. mas mubo nuon ug idle temp pero ang load temp gamay rag deperensya. mga 5C ra man guro to.
