Hello,
I have some great 2-pin fans (8 of them) that I want to use in my case but they are very loud at 100% speed. Can I use any controller to lower the fan speed to 90% ?
They have 2-pin female connectors.
Thanks

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

You salvaged them from PSU's, now didn't you? If so, they're only good for the PSU's they came from since the fan profile is bespoke to that fan and the unit it came from. You can shoot us an image of the fans(stickered information and the connector) and we can confirm that for you.

I do not have the image of the connector now, but it goes to this male connector as on this image (black)
