Heh. I have a Zalman Flower Fan in my PC now, and it's wonderful. Quieter and more efficient than any other (well, except one REALLY loud) Athlon fan I've ever come across. linkie: http://www.quietpc.com/uk/cpucool2.php (the first pic) Basically, you mount a big, quiet 80mm fan to blow down onto that. It's nice. It's quiet. It's heavy. It's a lot cheaper than a lot of the fans out there.
