Hello! Im new to the forum and Im also new to "opening computer cases and seeing whats inside" in general...hope i posted in the right section...
First off, here's my specs
Thermaltake Armor Black
EnermaX CoolerGiant EG565AX-VH(W) 535W
AMD Athlon 64 Dual Core Toledo 4400+ with STOCK fan
DFI Lanparty NF4 SLi-DR AMD SKT 939
Raptor 74Gb
MAXTOR SATA 200Gb
Point of View 7800-GTX (256) PCI-E
Geil One S 1GB
XP Pro
My problem was that as soon as I started playing Call of Duty 2 my PC became a jet plane in terms of noise level and since the problem started with a graphically intense application I always thought it to be the video card's fault...
After months of thinking it was the video card I decided to keep my rig open durring a Mark05 session and test each fan (blocking them with my finger) to see which actually made that godzilla type noise...
I was suprised to find out its the motherboard's chipset fan!!!
Can you please help me on how to disable this evil noise? Im guessing they dont sell third party mobo chipset fans...sigh
Thanks
