Wierd clicking noise....

the cpu only has a huge heatsink, no fan. there is a duct unit that covers the heatsink and goes to the rear exhaust. The power supply has a 20 pin connector to the motherboard, seems standard....unless the pinout is different. I dont think i'd try unless i knew for sure it would work...

Wierd clicking noise....

The dell only has one fan thats a rear exhaust, so it couldnt cause any over heating (not immeditaly atleast). The video card doesnt have a fan. The power supply fun was running (could feel the air), but im not sure if it was doing the clicking. Thats why im thinking it could be the power...

What's wrong with Kingston HyperX RAM? 1Gig for under $100?

i've heard that the hyperX is a mixed bag....its works for some, not for others. for me, my hyperX doesnt do the timings advertised (2-3-2). I got mine cheap so i dont really complain. Test it in your system to see if it works the way you want.
