Well personally i'd get fan 3 if not that then 1. Fan 2 is a bit of a limit for overclocking or upgrading at any time.

thanks Garndell i like fan 3 it is my first choice to the moment, but if anybody else have any other sugestion maybe other fan with more RPM like 5000 or more please post a link to see it
thanks

The Athlon Bartons are quite an improvement over others, i'd go for a Barton +2500 if possible, you'll notice the difference afaik 
Its only an extra £10 to get an Athlon Barton 2500 instead of an Athlon 2400.
And about the Fans, Number 3 of the ones you said

The Motherboard only supports up to a 266MHz FSB on CPU so he could get a 2600+ but Bartons would be a waste on that board.
You can get KT400 & KT600 based boards for Bartons cheap nowadays, not good overclockers but they do perform well.

oh sorry, i didn't read what motherboard it was 
RE: which one is better fan for cooling by belluso_316 on 07-09-2004 at 07:50 PM
Garndell is right i go for that AMD because its the max for my board, and i dont buy a new board cause i dont have that much money right now i just see that barton in just $67.00 and i say is a great price. maybe later get better upgrades.
about the fans Garndell you give a good option there but now i dont know wich one to take
Fan 1
this is Fan 4 in your recomendations and it looks really powerfull, good RPM and stile ohh and good heat sink
but i found this one
Fan 2
i saw this one yesterday and i was thinking to get this one but you put me thinking with that other.
i will not bother anymore, in your opinion which one you think will make a better cooling for my settings??
thanks for your help a lot

When you look at them, pick the one that meets your requirements INCLUDING noise. You don't want a airplane under your desk now do you.
