My PC Power and Cooling fan for Pentium III (socket 478???)
is getting noisy after about 3-4 years. Maybe less. I vaguely remember
replacing it once.

What's the best quiet fan for a socketed PIII?

Is there a super quiet super reliable 80mm fan with a sink that would last
another 3-4 years?
The fan I have is about 50mm I think and seems to spin rather quickly.

I assume there are no liquid cooling kits for PIII and I'd rather not go
thru the trouble and
expense of installing one. ($200 minimum? I'd rather stay under $40-50).

Thank you.
