Cooling LGA 775 Intel P4 3.2 GHZ on ASUS P5AD2-e premium
Hi,
I have a ASUS P5AD2-e premium board with an intel p4 3.2 GHZ lga 775 chip [640], and I am looking for a quiet cpu cooler than what comes with the chip. 1) any recommendations? [the zalman 7700cu won't fit in my case] 2) has anyone tried the thermalright xp-120 with this board? 3) if you were able to fit the thermalright xp-120 to the cpu, which fan did you use? Thanks, George |

I used arctic silver on the CPU and then installed 2 StarTech
(www.startech.com) PC expansion slot video card cooling fans in 2 open slots. One right next to the video card and one up by the CPU on the other side of the video card. It really helped. They are super quiet and they suck enough hot air out of the case so the CPU fan slows down to a whisper.

Hi,
I have a asus p5ad2-e board with an intel p4 3.2 Ghz being cooled by a thermalright xp-120 unit with a nexus 120mm real silent case fan [D12SL-12]. Since installing this coolling solution my machine is much more quiet, however, on start up I get a bios error stating cpu fan fail. Once I hit F1 to bypass the error, asus probe 2 shows the cpu fan going at ~1028 with temps of CPU around 28 C / 82 F. I have the nexus fan connected via the cpu fan [3 pin connector] on the motherboard. the fan is mounted to be drawing air away from the motherboard. Any suggestions on how this bios error should be remedied? Have I connected something incorrectly? Thanks, George |
