UD9 + oversized CPU coolers + Tall ram heatspreaders is it possible?

Well known as being efficient but a bit noisy. I haven't actually used them personally but have read about them several times.

I wonder if there is something quieter that will push 100 CFM

What exactly will you be cooling from the outset? What I am thinking is that you could install some less powerfull fans if you don't need the full cooling potential and upgrade them later if you felt it necessary.

I have checked out a few available 120mm fans that are somewhere close to the volume of air required. Obviously in nearly all cases the volume of noise follows the volume of air moved.

I would just like to update my post regarding the CPU waterblock. I originally recommended the Swiftech XT block but it has since come to light that the build quality and especially the quality of the retaining fittings are lacking. I am in the process of swapping mine out for a HeatKiller version 3.0 which seems to be a quality cooler and better made.
