You know what you should do? You should get a water cooling system and put your sea monkeys in that! Problem solved.

PROBLEM SOLVED!!! Thanks for trying all, but the problem was..... THERMAL COMPOUND!!!
When I took apart the computer, I wiped off all the thermal compound between the CPU and Heatsink. When I went to put it back together, never having built a computer before, I just asked my dad to pick up some heat transfer compound at RadioShack. Turns out it was crap, I ordered some Arctic silver 5 from Newegg. It arrived today, I wiped off the old and put this stuff on. IT runs Quiet as a mouse!!! I couldn't believe the night and day difference!
