Hello,

I have this horrible very noisy stock ventilator in my build Badscrew's build diary: WIP N°1

48854788967_c5e42f506f_b.jpg

What do you guys and gals recommend as a replacement?
Can I run it fanless? It's a non-overclocked Celeron 533. The more silent this is, the better, this PC will be used for music production (hopefully).

Oh, another thing that may be important: this case fan at the bottom of the picture isn't connected to anything: my motherboard doesn't have a connector for it...

The cooler you have is an OEM Intel cooler, but you can install any S370 cooler and most S462 coolers (pro tip: I have these on stock 😀 ).

You should be able to find 4 pin Molex to 3 pin fan header adapter cables in most online cable shops (and probably also on Amazon).
