Thanks both of you. Bruno Ive updated my bios about two months ago with nothing changing with the fan speed blowing. As far as the Arctic Silver cleaner/purifier drops and the Arctic Silver thermal paste. done. nothings changed. the fan blows the right direction but blow out much cooler air than the psu does with the psu blowing warmer air but at a lower fan speed. So im guessing that pulling the mobo out my be the way I'll have to go. which brings me to Blackduck30's post.

The only thing i'm worried about is disconnecting all the componets in the comp and screwing up putting them back in. Or if i have to drill my mobo to put in a aftermarket heatsink/fan as ive heard some people have had to. I guess if there is directions I can do it...its worth a try.
