    Build Advice Fan setup for the Fractal Design North XL (mesh version) case ?

    Well, the radiator fans are already reading the cpu temp as their source and operating on PWM, so that won't be an issue. I'll connect one of the radiator fans to the CPU_FAN header, then, thanks for the help. I was wondering, though, is there any point at all to me plugging the "fan" head of...

    Build Advice Fan setup for the Fractal Design North XL (mesh version) case ?

    I swapped out the fans included with the cooler for the arctic p12 max fans, which do not have PWM Sharing Technology, so I had to connect them all to separate SYS_FAN headers (1 to 3) . I've already set all headers to PWM and" smart fan" mode, but "CPU 1" is still showing 0 RPM no matter how...

    Build Advice Fan setup for the Fractal Design North XL (mesh version) case ?

    I've done some experimenting, and when I plug a case fan into my cpu_fan header, then it will actually show up as "CPU 1" in the BIOS. The only times when I don't get BIOS to recognize it is when it's a cable (either the "all-in-one" or the "individual control" one) coming from my cooler. Seems...

    Build Advice Fan setup for the Fractal Design North XL (mesh version) case ?

    Okay, It's been a long while now, your first time building a new pc takes some experimenting. I've managed to get it to work and installed Windows on it to boot. I've set up my fans and adjusted the curves, (the fans are nice and quiet at 10 percent load) but there is something that I'm not...

    Build Advice Fan setup for the Fractal Design North XL (mesh version) case ?

    Wow, this is such a detailed description, thanks for that, and the warning regarding which fan header the aio pump cable must go to. Though I must note that I mistakenly added the wrong cooler to my PCPP list, and I am actually planning to use use the Arctic liquid freezer III 360, not I or II...

    Build Advice Fan setup for the Fractal Design North XL (mesh version) case ?

    Thanks for the heads-up. I'll need to look a bit more into how connecting the fans onto the motherboard works, since this is something I haven't done before previously.

    Build Advice Fan setup for the Fractal Design North XL (mesh version) case ?

    Okay, I think I have mostly enough info for now. Once I have the pc built (which should take a week or two, depending on how fast the parts arrive), I'll try out not using a rear fan in the beginning, and if it doesn't work out, I'll put it in as well, as either intake or exhaust, depending on...

    Build Advice Fan setup for the Fractal Design North XL (mesh version) case ?

    Okay, i think I'll go with the arctic p12/14 maxes in the tempered glass case, then. Are you sure that I am better off not using an exhaust fan? Will the AIO exhaust make up for it or is there a downside to not venting any hot air from the rear?

    Build Advice Fan setup for the Fractal Design North XL (mesh version) case ?

    Then would it be better to just take the tempered glass version case and go with higher powered fans? I'm guessing that the iceberg fans are louder, but the glass would cover up the extra noise that comes with them

    Build Advice Fan setup for the Fractal Design North XL (mesh version) case ?

    Well, if I also add two intake fans to the side bracket (with a potential dust filter), that should turn the overall air pressure positive, all things considered. But, assuming that I fill up all 8 fan slots (3 140 mm intakes to the front, 2 140mm intakes to the side bracket, 1 140 mm exhaust to...

    Build Advice Fan setup for the Fractal Design North XL (mesh version) case ?

    Hey guys I have mostly picked out the parts for the new PC I am building, but I was curious about the fan setup I should be using. This is the first PC I will be building for myself, so I am relatively new at this. My PC case will be a Fractal Design North XL (mesh version). I'm thinking of...

    [SOLVED] Monitor has no signal when using a displayport cable but does when using a hdmi one

    Okay, I'm not sure what exactly did it, but i removed the hdmi cable, switch the displayport cable ends around and used a different displayport on the GTX, it seems to be working now. Thanks for the help anyway.

    [SOLVED] Monitor has no signal when using a displayport cable but does when using a hdmi one

    https://eu.aoc.com/en/gaming/products/monitor/ag271qg/specification here under "connectivity information" it says: DisplayPort 1.2 x 1 So theoretically it should be fine. I assume the cable being 1.8 in "what's in the box" section shouldn't be a problem either because it should be backwards...

    [SOLVED] Monitor has no signal when using a displayport cable but does when using a hdmi one

    I do not believe the monitor is defective as it does show a signal from my laptop when i connected those two using the DisplayPort cable.
