So, about two weeks ago 6am in the morning I am awakened to the sound of horrendous shrieking noise. After the initial shock and re-gaining my ability to think clearly I realized it was one of the computers under the house. I knew I had a bad fan on one of my ati cards as it would often make a clicky-clacky noise, and now I new it had gotten worse. I had to disable the crunching on that card and put the fan speed back on auto. Today I installed a new aftermarket cooler and fan:

The computer is back up and crunching away, but I will probably wait a couple of days to make sure it is all OK before putting it back under the house.
