I've no experience with that cooler, but I will say I doubt an 80mm fan is silent at 1300rpm, especially when blowing through such a restrictive area like those thin fins.
It seems a little overkill for an Athlon XP system, the ThermalRight SI-97 is the best Socket A cooler, with a good 92mm fan it should be effectively silent and it's only £22
