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.

Other option is buy 4-pin PWM splitter & share with CPU fan header. So your casing fan will follow CPU PWM signal.

What do u mean by different header? btw, a fan with 3 pin is btter than 4 pin or the other way around?
*
Fan with 4-pin have PWM function, which mean the speed can be control through mobo.
Fan with 3-pin doesn't, to control it's speed need fan controller.

NF-S12A more suitable for casing ventilation
NF-F12 is more to heatsink/radiator (high static pressure)
NF-P12 is just between of those fan.

SOS

So, which is suit to your application?

Hi all master, I am looking for 2pcs 120mm intake fans for my Scout 2 casing. any suggestion? budget around <RM30 for per pcs.

I have tried the CM sickle flow X 120mm LED fan and it's too loud at 2000rpm and it's not suitable for me.
I would prefer low noice with cool led fan like Sickle flow X. currently looking at Enermax T.B Silence LED series 120mm 1200rpm. Any other choices besides this?

Thanks.
*
Same design with SickleFlow is Bitfenix Spectre LED but it using Fluid Dynamic Bearing that make it more silence & durable.

please recommend me 120mm fans using fluid bearing with good static pressure for use on heatsink, also need to be compatible with heatsink fan clips and below rm50.  sweat.gif

reason: the xigmatek xaf's (sleeve bearing) are starting to produce weird sound after just a few months use doh.gif

Yup, like that one. But how about the voltage? From what i understand, amount of voltage affect the speed of the fan. So if i using this converter, what speed i will get?

Is there any shop selling this in lowyat?
Thanks

Default voltage is 12V. If you get it from niclasteoh, you can ask him to customize it for 12V @ 7V @ 5V.

Small Comparison review: laugh.gif

Bitfenix Spectre LED 120mm vs Enermax T.B. SIlence LED series 120mm

Bitfenix Spectre LED 120mm is really a good silence fan. I have test and compare it with Enermax T.B. Silence LED series 120mm, bitfenix spectre LED 120mm wins notworthy.gif
Enermax T.B. SIlence LED series 120mm is not "silence" at all compare to Bitfenix Spectre LED 120mm.

Maybe the reason is because
1.Bitfenix Spectre LED 120mm is running at rpm1000±10%, Enermax T.B. SIlence LED series 120mm running at rpm1200 (±10%).  (>200rpm different.)
2. Fluid Dynamic Bearings (FDB) vs Twister Bearing

No Idea what is Twister Bearing.
Please correct me if I am wrong.

Hi Guys  smile.gif ,

Anyone have any idea to reduce the fan noise in the casing?

FYI, i have 5 casing fans (all from Cooler Master) and my Processor is still using stock cooling fan (AMD FX8350).

I have intention to upgrade to liquid cooling for processor but thing is i just bought the processor last year and scared that will void the warranty if change to aftermarket cpu fan.

Any recommendation on this, folks? Suggestions will be highly appreciated~! Thanks

p/s: mobo - msi 990fxa, gpu-radeon hd7850, casing-CM USP200

All your fan connected to Mobo? MSI got it's own software to control the fan (Control Centre-Green Power tab). Even my 3pin-2000rpm Evercool fan can speed down to 800rpm using it...
