Thermalright's SI-120 is an excellent choice for aggressive or low noise P4/K8 CPU cooling. However, the more aggressive the fan used, the higher the noise level - no surprise.
If you want top performance while gaming but almost soundless at other times, I would recommend using an aggressive 120 mm fan with a rheostat - this gives you the best all-around performance capability. For \"normal\" use, a fan spinning at about 1500 - 2000 rpm will give very good performance at low noise levels.
