Hi all, i am thinking of getting a new CPU cooler for my AMD Athlon XP2200+. I was wondering what you think about these two:

ThermalTake Silent Boost K7

and the ThermalTake Volcano 12

http://www.thermaltake.com/coolers/volcano/rs/a1745.htm

I don't think that they vary much in performance except the Volcano 12 is designed for overclockers and has an adjustable fan speed controller and will last longer than the Silent Boost.

I would think the Volcano 12 would be the way to go but i'm not quiet sure on that, can you give me your opinions...

Oh yeah would i also get better cooling if i bought a ThermalTake "ducting mod" for the fans?

Thanks in advance,

Daniel
