CPU issue

Hey well i just got my rig at christmas, the specs are in the sig thing, and well it's 2.1ghz tri core now so i wanted to OC it a little bit. i went to the bios and turned my FSB to 200 to 215, booted up windows and everything worked fine, so i opened CPU-Z and it was on 2.2ghz, but my cpu was making a noise louder then before, so i went back into the bios and checked the temps, it was 43.c from 40.c before the oc so the temps were fine , i reset the fsb to 200 and the noise went away, i dont know if this is normal or what.. my first time overclocking.
Thanks

Re: CPU issue

Your noise could be just that the fan is now going faster than before, hence, making more noise than before, or is this a noise that has nothing to do with fans running at higher rpm?

In order to produce sound air has to be moved; thereby creating a sound wave. A cpu has no moving parts... not to mention, it's sealed.

Take the side panel off the case, recreate the sound, try and isolate where it's coming from.
