Is the K7 Volcano 11+ any good?

Fry's has the K7 Volcano 11+ for $29.99. It seems like a pretty good
heat sink and fan combo. Here are the specs - taken from the box:

Fan 80x80x25
Heatsink 70x66x30.8
FanSpeed 1300 RPM at 20 C - 20.55 CFM
4800 RPM at 55 c - 75.70 CFM

Noise 17db at 1300 RPM
48db at 4800 RPM

I'm thinking of using it on a Gigabyte 7N400 Pro MB
using an AMD XP2600+

A Google search for "thermaltake volcano 11+ reviews" turns up lots of
information.

Perhaps some of those reviews will answer your questions.

The truth is out there. You just have to look in the right places and ask
the right questions.

I've been using it for about 4 months on my 2500+ @ 2.419 (Asus A7N8X-DX)
cpu = 42*C under load ..Not a problem..Bit noisey tough...Worth every
penny..Then again mate of mine achived the same with Aero 7+ (tad quiter ,
cost the same)....

If you like having a 747 in your PC.
