Hi,
I have my casing open for some time, and I used to wonder if the noise the CPU fan was making is really louder than it is supposed to be. It is a loud even hum, which doesn't cause the case to vibrate but you could easily tell that the PC's on from several meters away.
I have a P4 3.0 CPU and a ASUS P4P800 motherboard. I do recall once having to remove an extra optical drive because the CPU fan refused to work with two HDDs and two DVD-ROM drives.
Also, I have noticed at times when I run ASUS Probe that it occasionally warns me that a fan (either the CPU or chassis) has negative RPM ("CPU fan below threshold!"), which is strange because I can clearly see both sets of fans spinning (in the same manner as described above) from where I sit.
The same ASUS Probe software currently reports my CPU and Motherboard temps at 31 and 46 degrees celsius, respectively.
Does it look like I need to do something with the fan :?:
