I can see the temp in the BIOS... but I want to know what it is running at?
I think one of my fans has a temp sensor, can I see that also?

any suggestions?

It is under full load now..
Editing images, ripping CD's...

If thats load temp - then your "ok" But I like to cool mine a little more than that IMO.

I plan on adding 4 more SCSI drives soon.
I purchased some better fans, harddrive coolers and rear PCI slot type fan..

This should cool things down.

It was part of a motherboard combo that I bought from Mwave.
I paid the extra $$ for an upgrade.

When I install my new cooling fans, I was going to remove the heatsink and fan and blow it out (dust)
I will see if there is a number on it.

if you're going to take it off, might as well get a more efficient one, zalman and thermalright make pretty decent ones

I thought at the time I bought a rather expensive one...
Maybe it is caked with dust..
I will look first.

Can you recommend something for my Althon 2800+ ?
I am on Zalman's website and there seems to be a lot of cooling choices.

I would also like something that I can use on my next CPU upgrade, which will probably be AMD again

I have the CNPS7000B-AlCu for my 2800+ and i love it. It idles around 95-105f depending on the temp of the room. It only reaches the 100s for me on really hot/humid days. On load i have never seen it go above 110f. Just make sure you have the four holes around the cpu, zalman has a compatibility chart for you to check out on the page with the cooler. The same cooler also works with amd 64 sockets, so you should be set.
