I am having Pentium IV 2.8 HT Processor and 915 GAV Motherboard. I like to upgrade my motherboard as the said motherboard is making too much noises when i run any software or play game.

I am fond of games. So suggest me a good motherboard or any other idea. And dealer in Chandigarh which can provide the products. :D

The above thread don't have any suggestion for Pentium 2.8 HT Processor, And the sound is made by the processor fan........

It's not your motherboard or the proccy fan's problem.It's probably due to soaring temperatures inside your cabinet.Keep one of the side panels of your cabinet open and then see if the noise reappears.Check proper airflow inside the cabinet.If not already present,attach extra cabinet fans.Monitor the temperatures using everest etc.

Wats ur budget like? we could surely suggest sumthing better then... For starters the XFX 650i Ultra for arnd 5.5k and the c2d E4400 for arnd 5.2k should be a good combo.. Or if u can accomodate go for the E6750 which is for arnd 8.4k (best VFM chip IMO)...

Huh.. btw it is the proccy fan which makes the noise when it runs at a higher rpm due to the higher temps of the processor.. and p4 stock HSFs are rather famed for the high noise they create.. so u cant rule out the fan and proccy as such...

Guess I put it wrongly...it is of course the HSF making the noise but the problem could lie elsewhere like poor cabby ventilation etc.Only if these are sorted out can we blame the HSF squarely.Ya and the stock HSF sux bigtime.

sound can also be reduced by cleaning dust accumulated on fans, mobo, extra stuff.

I have kept my Cabinet open from one side, but the problem arises.... :rolleyes:

You could try reapplying thermal paste on your processor and graphics card. There are tons of threads on other sites, where doing so has drastically dropped temperatures.

I recommend Arctic Silver 5 - please do read up on correct applying method before doing so.

And Another question :

Should I go for a good motherboard or decent motherboard with decent graphic card ??????

if u want to use thermal paste, then Arctic Cooling MX-2 .. better than AS 5

@entrana .. check out my post above mate.. It clearly says Application Instructions, just click on the link !!!!

Btw application instructions for different brands of thermal paste may vary, so better check out the manufacturer's site first..
