Have you got Cool & Quiet enabled in the BIOS? And, any chance of full english posts - I had to read that about 3 times before I got it.
Is Q-Fan on in the BIOS? It's possible that the fans are being switched off (or stalling) because their voltage is being set to a low level due to good temperatures. Whether it's the problem or not, I would replace it now before it blows and takes out your shiny new hardware. Pick up a Tagan, Seasonic, Enermax, Hiper or Fortron power supply of approximately 480 watts - this is more than you need, but it will give you the capacity for future expansion if you choose to upgrade. If you aren't for a while, 400W will do you fine.
coo 'n' quiet is not enabled and q 'fan is enabled. it constantly happends now so i restart the pc and the 3rd time the cpu fan works ok what is troubleing me is it always world on the 3rd restart ! once it is running the fan is fine ! (sorry about the language on early post was in a rus)
