Case Fan

Hey everyone, I’m in the process of upgrading my water cooler and could really use some advice. Currently, I have a Ryzen 9 5900X paired with a small water cooler, but I’m looking to swap it out for a bigger 360mm radiator to improve cooling performance. I’m also mindful of maintaining the...

[Moderator edit to break up solid paragraph of text.] I recently installed a ASUS TUF Gaming B550 with Wifi II motherboard in to a Gamdias Aura PC case. Case has 4 RGB fans including necessary wiring but no instructions. I am not using an RGB hub or controller, just the stock case and...

Hi, I want to buy some fans for my case. The case has a controller on the top that can control the speed (Low, Stop, High). The fans that came with the case plug into connectors that run up to that controller (it has 6 connectors, only using 3 currently). From that controller, only 1 cable...

So I just transferred my components to the Sama IMO1 PRO case and the temps for my GPU are 4 degrees hotter than they were, both at idle and max load. I have an Asrock Challenger RX 6650 xt (picture below) and was wondering if I should put the case fan I have under it more to the right side of...

Choosing between be quiet! Silent Wings 4 120mm PWM and ARCTIC P12 Max. The Arctic is about $10 on amazon and the be quiet is $18 (I'm getting 3 of each). I been reading reviews and looking at vids all night (thank you insomnia) and I've narrowed it down to these two (Noctura is just too out of...

Recently just got some stock 2x Phanteks case fans that I wanted to plug in but the fans won't work. Mobo: Asrock Z270 Taichi I have 2 other case fans work fine but are plugged into the PSU and my CPU fan works fine so it shouldn't be that my PSU doesn't have enough power... I want to plug...

Hi, my PC is getting old and suddenly the case fan in the back of my PC began getting loud every time I boot it up in the morning. It fixes when I shut the PC completely off (restarting doesn't work) and turn it back on after a few seconds. I have to do this every day. I thought it was the case...

So, I just installed a new fan kit (Game factor fkg400). To control speed, it comes with a 4 pin fan connector, with only the pwm cable attached to it (energy is supplied through hub). I connected said cable to my MSI b550 mag tomahawk, in a fan connector. The problem is, profiles do nothing to...

I'm looking for suggestions on the quietest components to support a PC with the following constraints. Don't worry about cost, I'm just looking for the best technical info: CPU: i9-14900K Power: motherboard will be set to enforce stock limits: PL1 = PL2 = 253 W GPU: Nvidia RTX 4090 RAM: 192 GB...

Hi guys! I need help with fan connectivity. If i buy any fan hub (for example a DEEPCOOL SC790), and i connect the fan hub to the motherboard secondary cpu fan header (in this case "water cooling CPU fan header" on a H370 AORUS GAMING 3 MBO), all the fans connected to the hub will react to the...

A while ago I took my computer to a repair shop to replace my PSU. Ever since then, every case fan on my computer hasn't been spinning. This wasn't a hassle to deal with, but im getting a new processor that will need better cooling in general. I really don't know how to fix this problem on...

I recently bought a 120mm RGB Aerocool fan and I planned to install it on the front of my Corsair Carbide 100R, seeing as it had no front fan. The fan came with four screws, but the case manual told me to use the provided case long fan screws. I tried using those but they felt like they weren't...

I've had this problem for a while now, but my back air flow fan does not start spinning when I turn my pc on It only starts turning after a couple of minutes and I flick it to give it a boost If I flick it right after the pc turns on, nothing happens Any help? This pc is pretty new <6 months

Hi guys. I have a problem with only one of my case fans, when i boot it up it starts to slow down, vibrate a lot and then stop however it spins right back up after. (this process happens for a few minutes before stopping) I have had this setup for roughly 10-11 months and this only started...

Was playing a game and left my PC on while I napped for an hour. Woke up to my fans spinning really loudly. Restarting PC didnt do anything. MSI Center's fan control didn't do anything. Changing POWER Options to Power Saver etc. didnt do anything, neither did changing the fans speed through BIOS...

Fairly self explanatory, but I've got a Thermaltake Tower 900 as a case, and even with both radiators, it still has room for fans on the top, rear, and even for the HDDS (pages 13-14). My question was: how many are needed, exactly? The case is huge so I'd imagine even with something as large...

The back exhaust fan of my pc is slower than the other 5 even though they are all connected to the same fan hub. Also, you have to give it a startup flick to get it to move, kind of like older cars. Any help?

So I have a Motherboard that is an ASRock X470 Gaming K4. The problem is I want to put 6 (4 Pin Header) Case Fans in just 2 (4 pin) Chassis Fan Headers so I'm gonna split it into two. The power of a single Case Fan of mine can consume 0.32 Ampere so if I multiply that into 3 it will be just...

My motherboard( ASUS Z170 PRO GAMING ) doesn't have an RGB header. I have bought Antec Prizm Cooling Matrix which comes with a controller then I bought Antec Prizm 120 ARGB Case fan and this fan was working fine with the controller. But then I bought Cooler Master MF120 S3 but it's light not...

Just get my PC back which I sent to an IT shop for repair & change pc case. I found that the case fan's light is on but it does not spinning. The exhaust fan at the rear, cpu's fan and gpu's fan are working. Here is the spec: Motherboard - Asus Prime H310M-D R2.0...

The case: click here (if you have any questions about the case this page should help answer them) Im gonna get a 280mm water cooler for my CPU. The case can only support it on the front side, so thats where im putting it meaning i have 2x 140mm fans at the front (for intake i would assume) For...

I have a no-brand 80mm fan in my case. Often whenever I turn on my pc, it makes grinding noise and it spins slower than it should be. And whenever that happens, I grab the spinning fan and pull it back and fourth just a little bit and it works normally again. Is the issue in the motor inside the...

I have yet another question about the build I'm working on. Hopefully the last one. I just had a hell of a difficult time getting the CPU cable installed due to how my case is built, and I had to remove the rear-most top fan. View: https://i.imgur.com/TYGwto7.jpg I was unable to fit the...

So at the moment I have 3 Noctua NF-A14 PWM Chroma settled onto 1 4 pin plug, now if I change the fan control in the bios at PWM 1 fan it is constantly on 100%. The motherboard I use is a B550F ROG Strix which also uses AI suite program, which if I do auto fan tuning it sticks to being up at 70%...

Hey guys. So after spending a week on fine tuning this parts list, I've finally decided to ask for help again. https://pcpartpicker.com/user/ameedmv/saved/#view=mD6Jyc All of the components are geared towards most bang for the buck without a GPU. I just have one little problem. I do not know...

Hi guys, This is my first build, and I apologize in advance for anything dumb I might say… also, sorry for the length! I am new and I’m not sure which details are relevant. So the main issue is only the motherboard lights seem to work. Even the case fans directly connected to the PSU are not...

I just got a brand new Cooler Master SF120M PWM fan, to replace a non PWM fan. The old fan showed up fine and could be controlled with voltage. This new fan is running properly , but for some odd reason the BIOS doesn't see it ??? Shows as ZERO rpm , and of course it does not show up in HWINFO...

I recently built my system but my Case Fans are not showing up in the BIOS. I'm not too sure if they get detected by the system since I don't have Windows installed yet. Here is some additional info: For the fans I'm using six Lian Li Unifans hooked up to their hub. My motherboard is the...

One of my exhaust case fans has suddenly either stops working on boot up and only starts working once I hit the case or the fan to give it some spin to start. This happened suddenly after one day when I booted up my PC. Any clue to what's going on here?

I've recently had to send my father's 1TB Adata XPG S40G SSD and his Aorus B450M for repairs due to a few issues (the backpanel audio was not working and the system sometimes couldn't find the SSD) and I had to take it apart. Today I've got it back together and the fans are way louder than...

So I accidentally plug my VDG Cable to 12v RGB Header and my case fan stop running, so I unplug and plug the 3pin cable to the 3pin rgb header on my motherboard but still not working and the RGB light still working , I also try to use the rgb controller to turn on my fan but I failed. Plus my...

I am trying to buy 3 of these fans - Cooler Master Sickleflow 120 As per specs, below is the current info: FAN RATED CURRENT: 0.15A FAN SAFETY CURRENT: 0.37A FAN POWER CONSUMPTION: 1.8W Based on this information, can I run 3 fans on a single motherboard fan header with the use of a fan...

Hi I have a noctua F12 radiator fan in the CPU_FAN header for greater control over CPU temps as it is a 4pin PWM and this is the only true 4 pin PWM slot on my motherboard (Asus Z87-Pro). I want to keep my AIO pump (H60) at max RPM so was wondering if I can de-couple this from the noctua...

Hello, My Motherboard is an old Intel 67BL which only have two PWM (4PIN) fan ports, one for the back, & another one in front. I already have two Corsair ML140 140mm PWM (4PIN) Fans that am using in my PC case/cabinet Now, in order to create a 5 PWM PST fans Daisy chain, can I connect my...

I am trying to add some RGB to my exhaust fans for my coming build. I bought the Phantek's Halo rings and wanted to buy a performance fan to get both best performance and RGB option. I'll be using 2xNF-A14 fans for the front as intake. I've read these halos look better with fans that have white...

Hello. About 3 years ago I bought a prebuild cyberpower pc, but over time i have replaced every component except for the case and the power supply. I was planning on buying the NZXT H510 , because as far as I'm concerned it is a pretty solid case. On top of this I was going to buy a 3-pack of...

I hope the title was clear, I'm planning on connecting one fan into a port on the motherboard (z490) and running the molex that hangs off of it to the second case fan. Will this allow me to adjust both fans, in terms of RPM? Or will it cause the fan connected to the first one through the Molex...

Hello all, I own a Thermaltake Tower 900: https://www.thermaltakeusa.com/the-tower-900-snow-edition.html The front top case fan is blowing hot air up and out of my PC case. I am running a RTX 3090 at the moment. The thing is that I just realized that I can put plates of food on top of the...
