Wait 8 years. We'll have made fans obsolete.

Oh, will we now? Sorry, but I have to disagree with you on this one. Air is still the cheapest way to move heat, and Im pretty sure it will almost always be. Even now, watercooling radiators use fans, and thermal electric units still use fans as well. There are very few fanless computers, and those that are use very little power, which is a tricky thing to balance power usage with processing power.

8 years is a long time. At that time, we'll have more powerful processors. More power means more heat. And I doubt just a couple of fans will be able to get rid of all that heat. Liquid Nitrogen cooling FTW!

What cpu? Are you OCing? Cleaning out the dust, rearranging cables and putting in 2 good case fans (80mm-120mm) is usually a good start, then look at a new heatsink.

If the hot air is being taken out of the computer properly, then the issue might just come down to the heat-sink/fan on top of the CPU instead. In a case like that, no additional fans would be helpful. Once you do get a new one though, don't forget to get some decent thermal grease. Without it, you are going to have serious problems. Thanks to applying my own grease instead of the stuff that came with the CPU, I think the temperature has dropped by a noticeable amount.

I disagree on the fact more power means more heat, because basically it's all depending on how much wattage it intakes to process memory. the more watt the hotter it will be put it that way.
