Hi people, I have an old pentium 4 Northwood 3.00ghz machine and the fan on it is way too loud to even type, I’ve replaced the paste, cleaned dust etc and I think it’s just a loud fan,I can’t monitor the temperate because my motherboard can’t detect temps, (dell optiplex 170l large form factor) I’m trying to cool it with a fan on the side of it, I will later fix it onto the heat sink but I want to know if it will be suitable, below if a short YouTube video of it here; (Edit) I accidentally put 2 videos on this topic, both are the same though

BEFORE you go and comment please don’t say “just get a new cpu, it’s old and outdated” e.c.t I Do Not Care So back to the topic I have a intel core 2 duo e7500 at 2.93ghz and it gets to a max of 50 degrees on both cores, is this too hot before it thermal throttles or is it ok thanks in advance

its only about a 250 watt psu, so to be safe max of 50 watts because the dell only supplies 45Watts to the pcie on the motherboard
