    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.
