Hey All - my current rig specs on in my sig. Lately, in the past few days or so, my rig has begun spinning the RPMs on my CPU fan at a much higher rate than normal. Using the ASUS PC Probe monitor, I usually find that under normal usage, my RPMs are at about 4600 on average. I have no idea...

Hi guys, I am thinking about upgrading my CPU by spending the least amount of money. I may upgrade to an Athlon X2 6400+ to max out my current setup. Obviously, I'll probably need to get an after market CPU cooler from Zalman or some other vendor. I am thinking about this one. My main...
