2 intel zeon processor fans. now performing as case fans. :) they aint quiet, but they lowered CPU temps a great deal. i still have the AMD hsf on there as well as it's original thermal paste. (the crap it comes with.. i suppose i could use some arctic ceramique, but why?)

edit:

it's holding temps at 36/18. during the day, it climbs to 42/29. but it used to get up to 45, but oddly enough, the case temp was always 18. methinks because i reversed the direction of the top fan, it now sucks the hot air past where the thermal probe is. so it's actually registering hot air now, instead of the freshly sucked in stuff.
