Hello,
My case currently has seven case fans... My case comes with a manual fan controller. Six of the seven fans are hooked into the controller.
Last night I decided to turn my pc fan settings to low... And it was SO quiet... I didn't realize how much sound the fans have been putting out!
So here's my question... Would it be safe for me to keep my case fans on low? Would I have to worry about cooking anything? I mostly game with this PC.
The CPU cooler's manually set to 100%, the GPU revs up or down to keep itself comfortable... My only real concern would be the hard drives and the overall airflow of the case.
Two of my four intake fans are right up (in the front of the case) on my drives... I'd think (hope) even keeping them on low would be more then enough air flow?
Also... The CPU cooler has a manual adjustment for fan speed... In the BIOS I have the fan speed set to full on... If say the manual fan speed was set to low on the CPU by setting FULL on the bios would it be able to override the manual control? I was just curious how that'd work.
Thanks!
