1) I have a NForce 680i mobo, which has a heat sink for the system. I also have a Tuniq 120 CPU heat sink (if you have one you know how big this sucker is). The fan frame for my cpu heatsink is touching my mobo heatsink. I actually didn't even notice until I had everything connected and ready to go because the fan frame is not resting on it and the heatsink fins wheren't being bent. Is this a problem? I'ma open my case up today and check it out so I can give a better discription and see if anything nasty has happened.
2) What do I do about extra power cables from my power-supply that I don't use? Is it bad to have them sitting in the case without a cover or something to ground themout? Can I open up my power-suplly and remove them safely(incase I need them at a later date)?
4) Is it best to use bios smart fan settings, download a smart fan program, or just have the fans set at a constat speed. (Planning on overclocking my system some)
