Default My bad...it's the CPU fan

Hi everyone,

I recently posted a topic concerning my system fan. Well it turns out that the noise is coming from the CPU fan itself, which is supposed to be running constantly. But since I put this new motherboard in it's much louder than before. I checked the BIOS screen to see if I could control the RPMs of this fan but it only offered information, no configuration options. Here's what it said:

Current CPU Temp: ~30 degrees Celsius
Current SYSFAN Speed: ~2000 RPM
Current CPUFAN Speed: ~4440 RPM
CPU Vcore: 1.68 V
AGP Vcore: 1.50 V
3.3 V: ~3.3 V
+12 V: ~12.5 V

Do these stats look reasonable? I'm still looking for a way to slow it down a little without worrying about the CPU overheating. If I can't, I may be buying a new fan...
