Hi,
I am trying to setup a mythtv box and most bits are in place but the
machine is somewhat noisy. I tried spraying a lubricant into the fan
on the CPU and the fan on some chip on the motherboard and that took
care of the worst bits.But I would prefer an even more quiet pc.
My pc is an AMD Athlon 1.1GHz I've found that watching tv through the
pvr350 requires 3-5% cpu load so cutting those 1.1GHz in 3 or 4 should
not pose a real problem.
The fan on the motherboard is a bit of a mystery to me - what does it
cool (yes a chip, but what chip and can I remove that fan too when I
underclock the pc)?
Thanks for your input - it is valued!

The fan is there to help cool your CPU. No, you don't want to remove it
if you underclock the system. You can replace the fan with one that is
quieter. Sorry, I cannot recommend one. Google and the archive are
your friends.

Cecil
