I have a P4 3.0 GHz HT processor that's been getting a bit hot this
summer. I do hit it pretty hard with Photoshop and other graphic tools.
In the winter and spring, I had no problems. Now the Intel software is
giving me some warnings. Yeah, it's only in the caution area 50-57 C,
but I'd still like to keep it out of there.
I'm running the Intel heat sink and fan that came in the box set. It
also makes the most noise in my system, but hasn't been too bad.
So, I would like this august group's opinion on a replacement heat sink
and fan. I want as quiet as I can get with the real ability to cool this
thing at extended 100% load. (Not overclocked.) I don't have the funds
to go water cooling.
BTW, I have 5 case fans, so that isn't the problem. The other regions of
the Intel mobo do not heat up.
Thanks,
Clyde
