    About the PC workshop thing. Well I'm not a Professional like most of you guys here but I've done three builds in the past few months. You know what I use? My moms expensive dining table covered with a cloth. She gets so pissed because she is afraid I'll scratch it.

    Moms always forgive their sons, wives make their husbands lives more difficult...Besides, you ever hear the term man-cave?
    Im no professional, I've only done a few more builds in my life than you have in the last few months. But I look forward to more in the future and am readying myself.

    Well I would say something but I don't really know much about fans.

    Russ likes the Silverstones, don't they make those in 92mm form?

    Buy three pin and four pin are you talking about the molex connectors? Either way it doesn't matter if it's 4 pin that's for PWM and you don't have to use it it will work fine with three pins.

    Pulse Width Modulation. I don't know, it's fancy talk. All it is, it's a way to control your fan speed without changing the voltage. This is useful if you have a LED fan where lowering the voltage will cause the fan to slow down put also make the light dimmer.

    You don't need it as your fan doesn't have any LEDs. You can still use the fan and control speed through voltage.

    Can someone give me a partial understanding of the different WIN XP..
    I've got XP Professional on my Computer.
    I just finished about an 8 hr reconstruction of a friends Computer. I installed XP Home Edition.And though he's got a slower Comp then mine,his seems to respond better
    Both have all the service packs, all though his did D/L about 80 updates
