Stock Intel Hsf?

I don't know if I would say it is stock because there is a 1/2 inch copper heat sink along with the aluminum over it.

 

Well, I picked one of those babies up at the computer show on sunday for 5 bucks and I thought it would run silently due to the fact that it is "stock." I strapped it on, plugged it in, and BAM! Instead of being silent, the thing ran louder than before! It does help my temperature by 6 degrees, but still! I dont want an airplane in my room.

 

So my question is, is this normal for "stock" Cpu hsf?

 

I might as well throw the old one back in and strap on an exhaust instead. I have an Antec SLK1600, and the metal is pretty nice and thick. I dont know...

 

thanks
