The CPU fan is definitely one of the loud ones. Could also be the back case fan or the PSU fan. I should unplug some of these fans to see how much difference it makes (thus also determine which ones are the loud ones).

Anyway, pretty easily overclocked to 2.53GHz (15% overclock). Can go a bit higher, but I can't be stuffed. Some people have claimed to be able to overclock this CPU to almost 3GHz, but that's using "suicide volts", like 1.65 or something. Don't want to do that, not like I can anyway with this fan. (Phenom isn't as good at overclocking as Core2 quads).
