You can read about replacing the stock fan in this thread: http://forums.silentpcreview.com/viewtopic.php?t=11827. I did this but put a strip of rubber between the fan base and heatsink and used screws to mount the fan. I hard mounted the fan so I don't have to worry about it falling off over time (...

Well, most abit boards read between 8-10 C too high. Motherboard sensors tend to vary a lot which is why it's best to rely on an external thermal sensor if you're worried. gksam, are your load temps. with only 1 instance of prime95 running? If so, then you are only using 50% of the processor if you ...

Zalman HP80C or Arctic Cooling VGA Silencers

I have an ATI AIW 9800 card and want to replace the loud fan with something more quiet. If I go with the zalman, I'll get the optional 80mm fan with it.
