    Painting fans

    sand the fan a bit so that the paint can stick better... also use very thin layer of paint as thick and uneven paints can cause the fan blades to be unbalanced, and won't want that to happen

    Major heat problems :(

    you need bigger fans... my system runs at 45C on load on my delta 92mm 110cfm fan at full speed but it'll climb to 55C if i set it at lower speed by using 7V mod ambient temp is normally 32C with casing temp about 35C

    Major heat problems :(

    i won't expect much from a 29CFM fan but is it me or the core speed and multiplier doubled when on load?? further more the core voltage jumps from 1.056v to 1.392v... you're saying on OC or on load? so far from what i've seen, the temp is consistent with the cpu OC

    Power for case fan?

    depends on the power rating... if it pulls more than 0.5A at 12V, then it is better at psu

    Need Help With Panasonic Panaflo 92mm M1A on an XP-90

    are you sure the wire arrangements are correct? in the header it is Black-Red-Yellow, while in the fan is Yellow-Black-Red... either way, it seems that the black some how got into midddle... the 3-pin header should be 1side -> Negative-Positive-RPM test the fan using a molex...

    Currupted Windows Graphic

    i thought this is suppose to be ATI flavor? anyway... for your case, there's a solution, one is to completely rrmove the driver, ie. means that when you restart your windows, it'll not be able to recognise the type of card other than standard VGA graphic card. then reinstall your driver.

    okay, dumb question: exactly what is the "PWM" temp?

    actually PWM are the mosfets beside the CPU socket's temperature... i found while experimenting with my XP-90... before XP-90, the PWM's temperature will be the same/higher than CPU temp... but after XP-90, with the 92mm delta blowing on CPU and Mosfet, the PWM is slightly higer than case...

    This doesn't seem right...45C Idle temps

    there might be a slight chance that your got power surge when the power came back. this can cause some damage to the mobo if you don't have a regulator or a good power suply... during my P3 days, power surge can town my pc on by itself!

    92mm Fan: Vantec or Delta?

    i'm using the delta fan... but for your information, it's just 110CFM, not as sidewinder rated the sound is more like mid pitch... something like leaf blower tone...
