I have 3 120mm fans in my PC. One in back, one on the side, and one in the front for the HDDs. I am running a 600w Power Supply, and a Radeon HD 2900xt. so things are pretty hot in there now. I have 1 more 120mm fan just sittin around. I was thinking about drillin into the side above the other side fan and makin my own hole for a 4th fan. Would that be a smart idea or is 4 fans too much?

i have 1GB (1x1GB) of 667mhz DDR2 ram running at 533Mhz in my motherboard. i also have another 512MB (2x256) of 400Mhz ram from my old motherboard.

would i get best gaming performance using just the 1GB at 533mhz or would i be better of using all my ram (1.5GB) running at 400mhz?

Does anyone know the name of the component on the motherboard near the CPU Socket, there's usually a few of them, they may be black or green or some other color, and they look like a ring wrapped in copper wire.

The Xpress 200 was taken out of another computer that had it installed from the factory, so we have no CD with the software. I am not computer savvy, so I don't know what to do to get it to work.

I'm wondering what other graphics card relates to the NVIDIA GEFORCE FX 5200-256MB AGP. Can anyone tell me which radeon card compares closely to it? I'm also wondering what games can run on high with this, can you please tell me one high quality game like CSS or Battlefield 2142 that can be ran on high with no problems? Also, can someone show me the order in which this card is at, for example, 8800, 7600, etc, but can you show me in Radeon not in Nvidia? What I mean by that is like Radeon x300 being close to Nvidia 5500 or something. And add on the fact that it's ran on a 1gb ram. I don't want random answers about it being bad. Thanks.
