Yay! New CPU Fan / Heatsink Installed
I am soooo glad to be rid of the buzzsaw sound, it was driving me nuts. The thing was so loud that I could hear it grinding / buzzing from two rooms away.
This evening I replaced it with a no frills Masscool fan / heatsink that has grease pre-applied. Excellent. This is especially useful because I have no Artic Silver at the moment.
The most beautiful part of this is that it’s so very, very quiet compared to my buzzsaw block. It’s something of a whisper, and I’d hardly be able to tell that the system was turned on if the side of the case was on. I have so, so much <3 for this quite quiet little thing.
….. this post being cut in half is brought to you by the character < . Unfortunately for you, you don’t get to read my rant about UPS. I’m sure that we’re all disappointed. *hears the massive “awwww” sound from here*
~Mysk, the sarcastic one.

About
I’d describe myself as a very ecclectic and strange individual. My interests range from the very spiritual to the very technical, having delved into both non-mainstream faiths as well as little bit of Linux. I’ve been called a “hopeless romantic” by a very dear and intelligent woman and I find that quite fitting, and I typically shun social interaction in general.
This blog is a sister blog to Shadows In Motion and will most likely be used for personal posts; what goes on in my life, perhaps some of my writing, random thoughts and so on. Be prepared for some strange ideas!
