3-bay to 120mm fan adaptor is complete. Let's hope it fits. https://t.co/S9ExmXCuvk 00:58:32, 2016-08-06
Two 120mm fans, fitted & working. Also new USB ports. New buttons to follow. https://t.co/FXcVP29fLb 03:06:56, 2016-08-06
Removed one video card & replaced one old fan with two new quieter fans. PC seems a little quieter overall. Some casing still missing though 03:15:49, 2016-08-06

Some serious discrepancies here. ClickBIOSII says CPU temp is holding around 54c. OHM says 42c. Corsair Link says 40c. 18:59:58, 2016-08-06
Most worryingly, something mainboard temp sensor is reading near 100c in both Link and OHM. Think I need to get the IR thermometer. 19:01:08, 2016-08-06

IR thermo says the likely issue is the northbridge. The heatsink beside the CPU reads 75c. 19:35:02, 2016-08-06
@Chalmrah So what is likely under the heatsink beside the CPU? MSI 970A-G43 in reply to Chalmrah 19:43:26, 2016-08-06
@Chalmrah It certainly looks like it would be the Northbridge. AMD 970. in reply to Chalmrah 19:44:36, 2016-08-06
Northridge fallen by nearly 20c since completed ripping the DVD. Still rather high though. Will dig around for better heatsinks. 20:07:27, 2016-08-06

Rather concerned that the ointment we've been given for Kizzy is marked "for Dogs" and is explicit about not letting them ingest it. 23:09:34, 2016-08-04
FYI, Kizzy is a cat and the problem is her licking sore spots due to a flea allergy. So she would ingest it. Some sellers say dogs ONLY. 23:10:25, 2016-08-04
