Why? Not trying to mess with you just want to know why? Is Linux better for programming?

Not something you want to hear from them, I bet they switched over to Linux or Mac OSX because I don't hear that anymore. LOL!

Believe it or not the Core 2 CPUs are based of Pentium 3. The Pentium 3 had a much more efficient architecture than Netburst (P4, Pentium D, etc).

I went straight from a Pentium 2 450MHz to a 3.6GHz P4. I missed the entire Windows 98SE, ME, 2000 Era along with the P3s and P4 Socket 478s. I regret missing that era, Pentium 3's still perform decently in todays things.

Dear Mr. Bill Gates,
As I understand, you have a daughter. Just informing you that a pink computer does not count as a daughter.
Do you still have a daughter now?

LGA 775 Stock cooling lapping:
i know how to remove the plastic pegs
but the problem is that the four steel mounting holes are lower than the base and therefore dont allow contact with the sand paper
is there any way to remove the four steel "hole" thing?
-thanks

I have a Dual 1.0GHz P-III Dell Precision 420 workstation, and with 1 CPU removed and taking out half the 2GB of ram, and it will eat any P4 alive up to the Northwoods that could be overcocked so well! With both CPUs and the memory restored back to 2GB it runs over most Prescots! CPU speed isn't everything, as Intel rudely found out when AMD introduced the Athlon 64 and followed that with the 64x2s that beat the bejesus out of anything Intel had to offer! LOL!!
While not setting any records (ROFLMAO!!), the 420 could still Encode with DVDRB/CCE faster than my Neighbors 2.8/800 prescot with 2GB of ram in his Dell. It just turned 8 years old recently and runs XP-Pro SP-3 at the moment. It's like the "Timex" of the computer world! Just keeps on ticking! LOL!!
Best Regards,
Russ

As a general rule, no.
Which fan is it? It sounds like a fan made for silence rather than performance.

it is the one of the fans that came with my Coolermaster Mystique 632s casing.
How much cfm would be good for a 120mm fan and how much more noise should i expect?

You can get up to 70CFM with a 120mm fan before noise becomes a real issue, using a Scythe SFF21F.

they are for about the first week, then the bearings start to whine and then they're pretty poor. I've had two NF-S12s, one at 1200rpm and the other at 800rpm, and both of them exhibit the high pitched whine at almost any speed.

800mhz?
Now that's fast!
The noise isn't very loud so chances are you wouldn't notice it shaff, but it's because the Noctuas are designed to be near silent that I kick up a fuss about it. They are far from silent as that whine ruins their otherwise clean acoustic profile. They're still quiet fans, but not silent, and for how much they cost they should be.
