I get NMI errors about every two months. What I do to get rid of 
the errors is give the 7300 mother board a good dusting..It seems
that "dust bunnies" jump around the mother board and if some of the bigger
bunnies get across a couple of bits in memory you get an error. 

Installing the new fans most likley is stiring up more dust than normal.
If you have 2 fans on your PC you might do bettery by putting a filter
in place of one fan and the remaining fan do the work. 3B1's and upgraded
7300 only have 1 fan on the (power supply) side of the machine and a 
sponge filter fills the other slot.. 

Either way, you can get yourself a compressed air bottle and blow the
the dust bunnies away....(waste'em...) Seem to help my machine..
