u see the side of ur fan where the power cable come out from, that's the exhaust side

so if ur exhaust side is facing into the casing then the fan will be act as intake fan
if the exhaust side facing outside of the casing then it will act as exhaust fan

I recently bought a cooler master blademaster xtraflo 120mm. It has 4 pin and i connected it to the 3 pin at the mobo. It seems to be spinning so slow. The min RPM is 900 & max is 2200. I cannot control the speed at all using any software because it didnt detect the fan. It only detects my front chasis fan and cpu fan. Can someone teach me how to increase the fan speed?

looks like a faulty header bro, it should come with a molex to 3-pin converter right?? run it on that for max speed wink.gif
***WARNING*** Running a 2200rpm fan in full speed will generate a hell lot of noise

Where to get that molex to 3-pin converter? Someone told me that if i connect the 4 pin to 3 pin i camt control the speed and it will only run at max. But it looks like it only run at minumum speed.

Molex to 3-pin usually came with fan package. Any 3-pin fan header at mobo can't be control by any software. You have to use dedicated fan controller for it.

My fan doesnt have it. Damn u coolermaster.

lol BTW have you tried plugging it into a different header?? just to check if the fan is faulty or the 3-pin header is faulty

What do u mean by different header? btw, a fan with 3 pin is btter than 4 pin or the other way around?
