Athlon 1GHz w/ overheat problems

You might want to put the rear fan to blow air out of the case. If its in "blow in" mode, it will just get the hot exhaust air being spewed by the power supply. You end up having hot air recycled back into the case. A typical setup would be having an intake fan at the front of the case (blowing air in) and having an exhaust fan at the rear (along with the power supply fan).

The ORB and good cooling are mutually exclusive.

The HS has no name or ref # or anything. The fans are from "Yate Loom", which I never heard before in all my life. Shouldn't the thermal paste be spreaded all over the processor and not just over the Core?

Oh, and the HS must weight about 200g.

Having the power supply hot air blowing in? I think I would take it to someone else to work on it.
