So I got a Zalman CNPS9700 LED here, cooling a Core 2 Duo E6750 @ 3.3GHz, and well, the thing is that the CNPS9700 LED just ignores the Fan Mate 2 used in order to control the cooler RPM, and, instead of that, it seems that moving the Fan Mate 2 wheel regulates the intensity of the LED
When I set the Fan Mate 2 at the minimum it goes around 1000 RPM and when I set it full speed it goes around 900 RPM (sometimes it even turns off)
So now I have the Zalman plugged directly into the motherboard, and it seems to control the RPM according to the processor's temperature, but I have monitored it and it only goes from 1400 RPM to 1800 RPM as a max, and I know this cooler can reach 2800 RPM
It's not that bad, but I didn't buy this cooler to work 1000 RPM under its full capacity, specially since I'm overclocking my processor.
Anyone knows what's going on with the cooler or how can I increase these RPM?
Thank you very much for your answers!
