is yours not working anymore?

[beanyman]

no my origianl fan is workinf fine - thought this new fan would keep the cpu cooler. as it sits now at 49 degrees at idle.

but that ounds fine, what does it go to @ load?

the hottest i ever got the cpu is 54 degrees after running unreal tournament 2004 for about a hour or so (i use adia32 for watching cpu temps)
