[G4] Re: WInd Tunnel Getting Louder

[Inga Renault]

My gosh...not easily visible, but mine were compacted with dust. The  
sound is still loud, but I wil try and see if blowing out anything  
else helps.

Somebody suggested redoing the heat sink since my MDD 866 had gotten  
so loud. I know for a fact that the person who replaced  this  
processor puts on very little silver compound.  If I am going to take  
it apart, is that definetly the way to go? On my old B+W G3s, I used  
to now worry too much and goobered things on, swapping the processors  
without blinking an eye, but on the newer machines, the heat sinks  
are so much bigger and I don't know much about them. Is and extremely  
thin film the way to go for sure?

Thanks,
Inga
