Anyway my problem is my processor is constantly at 60-63c this mean that smartfan in the pc is almost constantly on and it's very loud you can hear it when playing game and loud music even. my question is there any suitable fans to replace the fan in the system it looks properity however in the system utility there is a calibration facility for new h/s/f any suggestions i cannot stand the noise thanks i advanced i have rushed this post appologies for spelling,punction and grammar.

You have two problems... 1. you have a Prescott. 2. you have a SFF system. However, 60-63C for a Prescott is not bad at all, especially when you consider it's in a SFF enclosure . Because of the limitations of your system, you *may* have to live with it. But according to this review, the cooling setup is quite effective. Are the settings for the smartfan adjustable? http://www.anandtech.com/systems/sh...
