I presently have a 40 mm cooler master #MW-410M12S sleeve fan and heatsink on my chipset which seems to be wobbling and makes a constant whirring noise. I would like to replace it with a quiet fan that fits into my existing heatsink which almost butts up against the cpu heatsink. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Does it have push pins to keep the heatsink in place? You could always get the Vantec Iceberg all copper unit. Should be less than $20 at most places.

CompUSA has this fer less than $10 if you need something right away.

How about this 40x20mm Sunon or this cheap 40x10mm Evercool? This 40x28mm Sanyo-Denki is overkill, and probably too noisy. This 40x10mm show-off is clear plastic with four colored LEDs Shocked

I'd just replace it with a Cyrstal Orb. Nice little heatsink on it and a decent fan. It has a more powerful fan then the Vantec Iceberg. I have a Crystal Orb cooling my GeForce3 Ti200 and it does a nice job. It is big enough to take up the PCI slot below it though, but that shouldn't be an issue at all in your situation.
