I need some advise.
First off I know that this really isn't the right forum for this but I know you guys know your stuff and I wanted your opinion. I have a 1. 4 t-bird w/SK-6 heatsink right now with a delta on it. It is running at about 114 with no case fan.

I have a 1.4 t-bird w/SK-6 heatsink right now with a delta on it. It is running at about 114 with no case fan. I was looking into getting an adapter for the SK-6 but all of the reviews I have read have said that it is a waste of money.
I would like to know what people are running on their SK-6's. I am just looking to get the noise down.
I'm not going to overclock so droping the temp is not a big deal. I think that the exaust fan im going to add in the back will help with droping the heat a bit anyway.
So I just want to know what fans are being used on the SK-6 and what the temps are to go along with them.

I had a delta 60mm on my SK6 with an athlon 1.4@1.575 and the temps reched about 43degrees C under full load, but i do have quiet a lot of case fans which helped alot.
I also tried an 80mm delta on it but it wasnt as good as the 60mm. For quietness there are a few fans you can try, i like the YStech ones as the push a decent amount of air and are nothing like a delta noise wise (thank god).
Here are the stats for the fans
Delta 60mm
Output - 37.6CFM
Decibels - 46.5dBA
YSTech 60mm
Output - 26CFM
Decibels - 36dBA
Obviously temps would be higher but it shouldnt be that much if you get an exaust fan to go with it I would say probably about 50degrees C with that fan. Damn those 1.4s just put out too much heat!
Hope this helps you a bit.
