The AT power supply in my workstation kept getting noisier and noisier so this morning I got fed up and replaced the fan. While I was at it, I hooked it up at 6 volts instead of 12. I figure that my diskless workstation is not drawing much power so why do I need such a powerful fan? That made it very quiet, so quiet I could hear the CPU fan. Figuring what the hell, I took off the CPU fan, put on a huge heatsink and underclocked the CPU (a K63+450 now running at 300). I'm not running any local apps. So far the temps look good and I have had no problems with my now completely silent setup.
I'm just wondering if this seems like a risky setup to anybody. I never leave the machine on unattended and so far it's running very cool. I don't care so much about my workstation crashing, I'll notice if that happens, I'm more worried about a potential fire or such. Thoughts?
