Hence the name 'Big' Typhoon . If you're after something smaller, the Zalman 9500 might be the HSF for you.

The idea behind the type of heatpipe cooling used on the P5W Deluxe is that exhaust from the CPU fan will assist in cooling the chipset. If you want to replace the stock chipset cooler, you could either look into a watercooling kit, or a seperate active chipset cooler. The heatpipe cooler on the P5W Deluxe is, however, considered to be very good, and i'd be reluctant to replace it unless you're looking at a high-end watercooling kit.

These heatpipe coolers rely primarily on having adequate case airflow. Adding a few case fans would be a good first step.

I just ordered a freezer 7 pro, they seem very good for the cheap price. Should be quiet as well compared to the boxed PentiumD fan.

According to my box, it is 4 sones quieter.
