But yes, it is easy to cool a non-overclocked C2D this way, with a good heatsink (eg Ninja). Υes indeed!. Keep in mind that i'm not interested in overclocking. I'd like to stay within the rated speeds of all my components. The system does not feel any slower at 2.4GHz. My original plan was to run ...

MrSpok, what speed are you running the case fans at? If you're running them at 1200rpm, you must hear them, no? Also, are you using the ninja without a fan attached? How did you attach those pads to the top of the case? I adjusted their speeds, with SpeedFan 4.32. Front Nexus runs at 1000 RPM (90% ...

Re: Ninja Plus Rev.B touch my "caps"

As others have suggested, it is best to file the offending part of the base so there is no mechanical interference. α) Thank you Mr Thomson for the definite answer :) β)CA_Steve, so..i need a dremel tool for my problem..somewhere on the internet i saw this technique. thanks for your reply :wink:
