I just installed system with a Intel E2140 into a Silverstone ML03B case and its gets hot unless I put a 80mm case fan blowing across the cpu. I would like to get this machine silent as possible, I am currently running stock cpu & case fans both a few years old so they are too noisy.
Any suggestions for a CPU heatsink & System fans for this case?
Silverstone ML03B case fans?

I like the Zalman coolers Especially this one for socket 775: http://www.google.com/products/catalog? ... CEMQ8wIwAQ#
Also I like the fluid Dynamic fans. They seem to hold up longer and are a bit quieter. Some info here : http://www.silentpcreview.com/article63-page2.html
Scythe gets a lot of good reviews. Most any fan based on a Sony's Fluid Dynamic bearing (SFD-B) should hold up well for longer periods of time.

Cool they have that Zalman at my local microcenter I will pick one up this week. It appears that 80mm case fans fit the right side of my case thats good because the cpu is right there but noise levels on the 80mm seem to be above 25 dba.
