Getting a bid fed up with my rig sounding like a helicopter the rear extractor fan was mega loud disconnected that then the heatsink fan just got louder (CPU temp is still fine ) wouldnt mind silence.. lol any decent fans you guys recomend (prefer to be able to use same heatsink just unscrew existing fan from heatsink and put new one on?
 
Is it the stock heatsink or an aftermarket? What size fan do you need?

You need to look at both the dB and CFM ratings. Currently I'm using some from the SilverStone Air Penetrator range, in the past I've used Noctua fans.

[edit]
Don't forget to observe the direction the current fan is blowing.
