See what the temps (and noise level) are with the stock fan, and if you aren't satisfied, get a better fan.

Okay...I got the Ninja. My idle temps are MUCH better, like 10c better, but my load temps are only about 5c better than the stock cooler. Pretty impressive, but i want a better fan. about 31-32c idle, 55c load (2.2 GHz, undervolted to 1.25v)

That's going by what the thermal diode on the processor says...sometimes they aren't very accurate. The heatsink isn't even warm to the touch. I'm running this with the fan speed on high, since it doesn't really make any noise at all.

Just a little on the loud side, lol.

I want a quiet fan that pushes over 60cfm of air.

Thanks.

This is supposed to be really quiet. Only 44CFM, if you can live with that.

If you want big temp drops the best thing you can do is change the ambient temperature in the room. It's Mid Aug, the hottest time of the year, and unless you have AC in your house your temps in your house are probably 80+, just something to think about why your temps are a little higher then normal. Anything under 50c under load is a pretty good temp.
