    I'm not sure,because both of the power supply and processor are near to each other.So it's hard to tell whether the noise came from power supply or processor.

    How can it come from the power supply, it could be on the processor?

    Huh?....-_-"
    No,there is no spark..
    If there is,I would have stopped from doing it instead send it to the computer shop.

    doesnt mean anything like that at all.

    meganova: something like one of these:

    [​IMG] or [​IMG] or [​IMG], the last one is the easiest option but I can do the same thing with either of the first two.

    It turned out that my Processor need to be changed because one of the pins are missing at the bottom.and It was my fault for not unlocking the motherboard before placing it back(causing the pins broken,I think it was because of the locker).So I thought, I just need to buy the some processor and place it back.
    And it worked,

    and the big-huge noise sound is from the power supply fan,because my motherboard need 550w power supply cable and I'm using the 250w power supply(because of the CPU is turned on for about 8-10 hours per day,it causing the power supply to work more and thus exhausting it).So,I buy the silent-550w power supply :)

    indeed, the pins on the processor can not be damaged in any way and the processor can't be forced in its socket.

    Uhuh,
    It cost too much,because I have to change the motherboard too.because the Processor AMD Althon X2 isn't available right now.So I'm just buying the PhenomX4 or something like that...

    phenom II x4 costs even more, and would need an entirely different board to the athlon X2.

    it may have the same per core speed, but it has two cores more than the Athlon X2 has. Plus, depending on which stepping you're talking about, the phenom II x4 may well draw less power. Additionally, Phenom II x4 supports DDR2 and possibly DDR3 (the AM3 phenoms support DDR3) while the Athlon X2 only supports DDR

    Not really, its just more power efficient. The Athlon X2 is about 4 years old now. The latest AMD is the Phenom II x4.
