What's making all the noise? The only thing I see different between systems is the move from the Phenom II to the FX CPU and the MB. The coolers are similar for the 2 processors. Did you remember to enable Cool and Quiet in BIOS with the new board? Have you chosen 'balanced' in your Control Panel/Power scheme so the CPU goes into idle mode when demand isn't present?
