adequate cooling for my Athlon XP 3000+.

Had the same problem with trying to use the Zalman (great quiet cooler), went to a ThermalTake SilentBoost (for an Sempron 3000+), while getting adequate cooling the fan was noisy, then replaced the fan with an Arctic Cooling fan (Arctic Fan 3). Quieter and adequate cooling. Still it's not a Zalman 7000
