My new toy

I've just fitted a thermalright XP-120 this afternoon, it's huge and very tricky to fit. My temps are now fantastic and can get 3.3Ghz stable at 1.6 vcore, before I had to up the voltage to get it stable. After 30 mins of prime 95 at 3.3Ghz my load temperature, according to MBM, is 33 degrees :clap:

How can I control the speed of the fan? I don't have any drive bays free to put a contoller in.

I've seen fan controllers that will control one fan and are built into a pci slot plate, you could probably use one of those.

Y.S. Tech, word. I use those for my case and heater core only mine are the 115cfm versions. At 7v, mine are... *stops cpu fan* SILENT!

How do you set the fans to 7 volts?

pwnt by pat · Oct 1, 2004

If your fans have the 4 pin connecter what you do is move the ground wire to the fan from it's origional location in the middle of the molex connector to the red line (5v - the yellow wire is 12v).

Thanks pwnt by pat, I changed my 2 120mm fans to 7 volts and there so quiet now.
