Cooler Master, bGears, Noctua, SilenX are a few of the better known brands.Hi I recently received two powermac g4's and the fans are really loud, I know that this was a common issue and can be fixed by upgrading the fans. Would anyone recommend some silent fans for me that would work inside the psu?
Yes, but you don't necessarily need to. The three pin connectors are simply power, ground and speed sensing.I have opened my psu up it looks to have 2x 2pin 60mm fans now most fans i come across are 3 pin could i just use a 3 pin to 2 pin adapter as i know i have one about somewhere
Ah thank you for the information, would you recommend a certain cfm and rpm for the psu?
Because my PSU is for a Quicksilver and therefore 80mm.thought the fans were 60mm how did you manage to fit 80mm?
Please report back when you've completed the upgrade.ah I see, well I have ordered some fans now thank you for all the help
You can reduce the speed of the fan by adding diodes on the red wire between the source and the fan. Diodes will lower the voltage and reduce the speed.
then overheat the thing needing to be cooled because the air flow was bad... (also diodes? a diode is used for rectifying AC to DC not dropping voltage...)
Diodes are commonly used to drop voltages in electronic circuits.then overheat the thing needing to be cooled because the air flow was bad... (also diodes? a diode is used for rectifying AC to DC not dropping voltage...)
was reading that earlier looks like a few people recommend the F126025DH but I can only find F126025BH looking on the everflow website I dont think there is a difference?
