I have the coolermaster HHC-001 pure copper HSF on the BArton 2500. According to ASUS pc Probe I run at 36C under load and 33C idle.
i took the 60mm fan off mine, put on a 60-80mm fan adapter, then went to CompUSA and bought an Antec LED 80mm case fan and put that in there.
I know the stock fan of the HHC-001 is some 36cfm, but when i bought the replacement fan for some reason i was thinking it was a 32cfm, so i bought a 34cfm replacement, then only to realize i stepped down a little. damnit.
well it sure has done a job of quieting down the system overall... except before i changed out the fan i was running 1.85v through my 1800+ TbredA, then I switch fans and watched my temp climb to like 75c, when i set the shutdowntemp in bios to 85, eek!
So i incrementally turned down voltage, and realized i didnt need about .15v of it!
As soon as I buy a Barton 2500+ to overclock Im gonna buy an adjustable fan that can go up to like 48cfm... ill just keep that guy maxed out (and itll STILL be quieter than the stock 60mm on the HHC-001!!!)
