Running EVERYTHING from an external hard drive??

^That fan right there

 

i could get it yes but what exactly would i be looking for and where abouts on the fan would i put it?? thanks

 

Thats a weird lookin case fan. I personally wouldn't bother with all that. I would just go get a new fan for 5 bucks.

 

it's pretty standard fare for a lot of basic PCs, unfortunately they are indeed usually noisy.

 

ok this is how it is the more programs that are running the louder it is like when im transcoding files with nero vision it goes really loud....hope that helped a bit

 

That is because you are using more CPU power which makes the whole thing hotter. That's why the fan speeds up to keep the heat down.

 

It looks dusty. It probably just wants a clean.

 

Yeah, I read in a article somewhere that if it it too dusty inside static builds up and slows down the computer a lot. I don't know if that is true, but cleaning it out is a good idea anyway.

 

Yh i thought so. How would i go about cleaning it safely so i dont mess it up?? thanks again

 

Use canned air, just blow the hell out of everything inside lol.

Hmm, canned air over here is about a dollar at walmart. Not sure about UK.

 

Then over here it costs fifteen times as much...
