Hi
I have a new machine with Gigabyte X570 Aorus Ultra rev. 1.2 motherboard
I would like to know if I can stop the chipset fan from spinning?
For over 10 years I have been using totally passive PSUs and for over I have been using 15 high-end fans with dBA value below 12. The fan that this company had provided with this motherboard is making an unacceptable noise for me
Can I dismount it? Are there quieter versions of chipset fans available? Or can I just stop it [how?] and leave it as it is - or will I have to play it safe and put an third party fan on top of the radiator that is covering that noisy piece of junk?
And why is it that for so many years the fans on chipsets were a noisy thing of a past - and yet somehow they have come back?
