Ok, I feel retarded. I'm wiring up the radioshack 25Ohm 5W variable resistor. I'm using it w/ my 172mm sanyo denki fan (.48amp X 12V).
In an article here at overclockers.com, Joe says: "All you do is clip the black wire on the fan, attach one end to the center pole and one end to either of the side poles; insulate with shrink wrap and you're all set to go."
I'm sure this makes sence to people who already know what their doing but I don't get which wires he's talking about. I don't just wiring up both the 12V and ground wires from the fan to the resistor because then how would I be getting the power for the fan?!?
Thanks for setting me strait... once you do!
