Stock cooler is fine, it is audible if the room is silent and the TV is not making sounds from my chair (~10 feet away). Can't hear it at all when the TV is actually playing something.

Also in Texas summer, with the air conditioner running 24/7 I could have gotten a much louder fan and never noticed

I'll check my temps tonight, I'm also using the 65W power supply since my 90W hasn't been delivered. No problems yet!

I was testing the 90w supply...... but now I am running the stock 65w no problems....... check out my first post I updated....
you really don't need the 90w if you are not going to stress out the APu....

Like I already said.... I am going to use my 90w brick on my next one because I am going to stress the Apu (cpu) once in a while.....

And yes you can tweak you fan also in bios...... cool and quiet its enabled by default.... you just need to change your targets... (its all on my first page)

I know for a fact your temps are going to be higher because you need a better cooler.....

I am glad you have the air conditioner on (a lot of people the noise will bother them) lol

Now that is funny.......

Yeah the noise isn't a problem. I'll check temps, and if they are running high I may even bump it up to level 2 or 3.

So far I'm loving it. Now I just need to build some huge storage farm for my media somewhere Big Grin

Yeah I've been looking at that. Looks expensive. For now I'll just keep shoving HDD's into my main PC and windows sharing Wink

I'm at work! I'll try all this stuff when I get home in a few hours Smile

I'm assuming it will work flawlessly. Then I'll have questions on how to customize what buttons do on the windows MCE remote I have.
