Finally fed up with the noise, I stuck a cotton bud into the 80mm fan to stop it. The 120mm fan is spinning up, which is good. I also placed a thermal probe attachment that came with my multimeter next to the tip. The temp measures around ~50-53 C. I was wondering if anyone had any opinions, and if ...

While old CRT's might benefit the old "black background on white text" trick in saving power, it wouldn't work on LCD's because LCD's create black from turning a pixel "on", blocking the backlight. So I figured that ...
