Any suggestions on a moderately priced cpu cooling fan to cut the noise
level on my P5P800 system with a 3.2GHz P4 540J Prescott. It's ok until I
run something like Shrink which pushes the cpu to 100% for an extended
period of time. The CPU stays cool but it sounds like the case is getting
ready for take off. I have done a little research on non-Intel fans and
they don't seem to mention the variable fan speed that I currently get when
the cpu goes under a load. Is this an ASUS thing and will I get the same
feature with another hopefully quieter cooling system?
