Greetings Tech Community,
I built my first computer from scratch and so far things have been going well, aside from that rather embarassing incident with the upsidedown Molex and a fried harddrive. Being new at this I'm not really sure what you can get away with and what you can't. I recently purchased a Spire CoolWave IIIâ„¢ (SP503B0-1) processor fan. It's "compatible with all P4 Prescott LGA-775 micro-processors." What I have is an E6700 Core 2 Duo. I also have a duct that will be connecting that fan to an 80-mm exhaust fan on the casing as well as a 120-mm intake fan in front and a 120-mm exhaust fan in back. Will using this fan cause my processor to overheat or will it be ok?
