<font color=green><b>Does anybody have any experiences to share with AMD's Cool-n-Quiet technology?</b></font color=green> I have been reading a bit and I'm getting mixed opinions from various sources. I'm trying to decide wether to install the drivers for this or not.
My system has an <font color=green>AMD 64 3700+</font color=green> with an <font color=red>ASUS K8N-E</font color=red> mobo and I'm using a <i>(huge)</i><font color=blue>Zalman 7700-cu</font color=blue> HSF <i>(which has it's own manual fan controller, fanmate2)</i>. When I looked on the AMD website for supporting mobo's they didn't even list this mobo although according to my mobo info it says it does.

Am I better off using CnQ on this board or just using the manual fanmate2 controller that came with the Zalman HSF and adjust the fan to a tolerable noise level for the amount of coolness I'm getting?
Anyone have Experiences with this setup?
<font color=red>P.S. The Zalmn7700-cu is suppose to be incredibly quiet anyways.....</font color=red>
