I am finishing up the setup of the new AMD64 test system tonight and was really stunned by the difference in noise level between the Soltek KT800Pro system and my DFI NF4 box. The Soltek just runs the AMD retail hs/fan full speed while the DFI will power the fan down or PWM it to keep the box running quietly. I am not really up on these things enough to know if most, some, or few motherboards have fan control for CPU hs/fans now. It's a pretty big feature IMO
