Re: [H] CPU Fan for an AMD FX55
I really do not care for the silence of a CPU at this point. Although, I do not want it too loud. I will post specs on the computer Soon. This computer is new and worked well over the weekend as a burnin. Now I have just noticed the CPU temperature getting to high.

Re: [H] CPU Fan for an AMD FX55
The ThermalRight XP-120 is considered to be among the best cooling heatsinks available and also the potential to be the most quiet - one problem is that it does not fit all motherboards and you need to check compatability. This is why I went with the Thermaltake Tower112 because the XP-120 would not fit my Asus without bending caps.

Re: [H] CPU Fan for an AMD FX55
Honestly two fans are overkill. As long as you can fit a 92mm fan on the bottom of the Tower blowing upwards (assuming a tower configuration), the PSU fan should be right over it pulling in and exhausting hot CPU air.
