I've got my new pc... There are a power supply of 550w, and three additional fan, two for the case and one for the hard disk. Now, I've got a problem, the CPU fan when I turn on computer is really silent ... about 3000rpm. but after five minutes, it goes to 5500rpm and make lots of noise. Is it normal? I mean... we're in summer :-) and air is hot... could it be normal, even if I've got 2 fan for the case and 1 for hard disk... !?!? Thanks in advance...

I modified mine to run at 7v, which wasn't necessarily the best solution because it started to get quite toasty. On the upside, it *was* essentially silent. Solved the problem for good by buying a Zalman CNPS7000-Cu-Alu. Now I've got a gigantic, nearly silent heatsink. Ahh better.
