i've been told the stock fan is very very loud.

i'm looking to replace it, i've seen the evercool fan that was ment for video cards...how quiet is that? Are there other coolers out there i should look into?
 
I actually unscrewed the fan part of the stock heatsink/fan and gave it a shot of WD40, when changing my w/c setup. Since then I haven't had any problems. I also removed the TIM (Thermal Interface Material) from the back of the heatsink and used Arctic Silver. Brought the temps down on my nforce4 chipset.
