I am running an i7-860 with stock heat sink fan. It is sort of loud. You can easily hear it whirring as it goes up and down in speed. I am looking for a quiet solution.
I have read of slowing down the stock fan and purchasing new a heatsink and fan. Can someone here offer some guidance?

The quietest setups tend to be the tower heatsinks, like the Thermalright Ultra-120. But, I don’t know what kind of case you’re putting this in, so it may not fit.
