I'm noticing some weirdness with my HP 873n PC
that I'm betting is due to overheating, and sure
enough, when I check the hardware monitor at boot-time,
I usually see the temp is over 40 degrees C, with the
fan going around 2700 RPM (and no CPU fan).
I've installed an extra fan in one of the slots, but it's
only helping marginally, so I'm thinking of removing
the heatsink on the CPU and installing a CPU fan.
Has anyone does this, and if so, do you have
suggestions for a good fan?
Thanks very much - John Switzer
