I tried to replace the fanless OEM heatsink with the aftermarket Cooler Master heatsink + fan for LGA775, but the pushpins cannot go into the OEM screwholes on the motherboard. This fanless OEM heatsink uses screws instead of using push pin like the standard LGA775. The desktop uses fanless heatsink, as shown in the photo in the following link:

The manual only says that the desktop can be upgraded up until Q9650 without mentioning the necessity to upgrade the cooler. I have no idea whether the CPU cooler is rated for 95W or not. Please advice if there is anything that I could do to save this babyД¬lick to expand.Because all this time I touch the heatsinks for both CPU and northbridge when the CPU fan is noisy - during this time, only the heatsink for northbridge is hot. In addition, only PC with Windows 10 will be able to use Ms Office 2019, which will be released in few more months. If this aftermarket heatsink that comes with fan does not improve anything, I think I will just dispose the PC and transfer the CPU to a used P45/P43 chipset based motherboard to build another custom PC.ДЄnother option is to downgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 7, but then the desktop will not be usable after Windows 7 expired by the year 2020. My last resort is to replace the existing OEM fanless northbridge heatsink with the aftermarket heatsink that comes with fan, such as below:

I suspect that this happens because one of the following things'ДЎ) The Q33 Express northbridge is faulty.Дў) The Q33 Express northbridge is not compatible with windows 10.ДЈ) The driver for Q33 Express northbridge is not compatible with windows 10.Д¤) Other faulty components (processor, RAM, etc) causes the northbridege to overheat. Usually, the CPU fan becomes noisy when I open certain websites on google chrome, such as facbook (when there are too many videos on the newsfeed), certain video streaming websites etc. I installed the NVidia GeForce GT1030 to lessen the burden of the northbridge, but I think it does not give too much effect. The noise level is only reduced after I replace the thermal paste at the heatsink of the northbridge. However, the northbridge becomes overheat, causing the CPU fan to spins noisily. Below is the summary of the desktop's components before and after the restoration: The desktop is based on Intel Q33 Express Chipset. Many months ago, I restored an old HP Business dc5800 Small Form Factor, as shown in the link below:
