I have that same exact fan and heat sink except its for a Intel. If you want to cool things down and not hear the fan then you should get it. CA3LE has the same one I do also. I really moves a lot of air and quiet.  |

funny thing is that the cpu isnt even hot when it shuts off. And yes i wuld think it would be a hdd issue but i can see the fan stopping and the hard drive is new quiet and runs perfect. Loads everything fast no noise what so ever and never freezes on anything. I even installed a game and played on it for 3 hours then stopped and 15 min later it finnally made the sound. I looked and the fan had stopped and I looked at the speedfan program i was given it had read that it had stopped. I did order a new fan and heatsink a simple one to install had the same type of clips wanted to make sure it was easy.

Do you still have cool n quiet enabled?
If it is still enabled, disable it in bios, and see if the fan stops then.
It sounds like when the cpu cools down, and the fan speed is slowed, it stops.

As far as the cpu fan turning off I tested on my own system one found there is a setting that can turn the cpu fan off. You may want to go to hardware monitoring and see if qfan speed control is enabled. (or at least that's what it is called on my asus board) and if it is enabled disable it.

just wondering...did you order it before you made sure your fan connector for the thing is 4 pin on your motherboard as well...because mine is only a 3 pin and socket am2....but that cooler is a 4 pin...just wondering... i just set that link up as an example. |

Yes its a 4 pin. I got the heatsink and fan on and still happening but only when its cold. Never goes over 25 C. I tried in the bios to dissable and setting that would controll a fan still doing it. Now i guess i need to find a jumper on the motherboard to see if i can dissable cool and quiet through that.

CPU Q-Fan Control and Cool n Quiet are different.. (I'm assuming you may not know this)
There should be a setting to disable Cool n Quiet in bios...Perhaps your board is different.
The settings for Cool n Quiet and CPU Q-Fan Control are not in the same place under my bios. They are actually under totally different categories...Next time I reboot and remember to enter bios I will check where..
