Decent cooler for my 2500K ?

Need something VERY quiet with decent cooling (I'm not really a power user). I assume the 775 socket coolers won't work with an 1155 socket chip?

Nowhere in Ireland, apparently.

That's not silent, but probably the quietest you're likely to find. Noctua's also coming out with a fanless cooler, but it's not available yet.

(Incidentally, QuietPC is a great site; I use it a fair bit. )
