I am having a big problem here guys...
My intension is to build pc as silent as possible. And the 3rd party cpu cooler is in that respect of great importance. I have searched the net extensively and my shortlist now consist of the following 3 CPU coolers
1) Scythe Ninja Pluss eva B
2) Tuniq Tower 120
3) Thermalright Ultra-120 eXtreme

I will run an E6850 CPU - Keeping a mid-range overclocking as an option (3.6GHZ Max). The mobo is going to be Abit IP 35 Pro.
As mentioned - Noise is the number one prioroty so I will consider running the cooler without a fan. Just have to see where the potential overclocking takes me in terms of temperature....

Any of you guys using one of these coolers mentioned?
Your experience?
Fanless or not? What fan?
Overcloking and temp?

Feedback will be very much appriciated

I supposed your option of 3.6ghz should be taken account into? U definitely cant go passive with that kind of clocks. Best option is to get a good hsf paired with a silent fan. My vote goes to Xigmatek S-1283 (RM189)

Are you running stock fan?

aiyah dnt need new thread for this
