I have always thought that since a CPU is set at a certain clock speed, so that it will always run at the same speed no matter what the temperature is.

one of my friends says he is going to get a new CPU fan so he can lower the temperature is increase performance, and he is not an overclocker. He thinks that having his CPU colder will make it go faster..


I told him that it won't effect performance, and that the only reason we have fans is to prevent over heating but he doesn't believe me..


what do you guys think?

thanx in advanced,
