ArcticSoldier Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 im pretty sure you can place a fan on any header for DFI boards upto 5w but i might need to recheck this as i've seen it before somewhere. best thing to do is to try it, worst case is that the fan wont be running at max power which means it runs quieter.

mihapodb Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 is there any program to reduce speed of fan if fan will be running all ok on motherboard? but not in bios......program for windows please help me now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcticSoldier Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 unless your fan has thermal throttling, i havent heard of a program that will vary the speed of the fan. usually its done manually by hardware or my PSU. if you have an antec v2 PSU, it will run your fans according to the temps. if you want to vary your fan, best bet is to go out and by those fan controllers. can control between 4-8 fans at 8w each channel depending on brand Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mihapodb Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 i have PSU tagan 530W 2nd-force edition program for reducing speed is ite smart guardian but this can only reduce speed on CPU, NB, and PSU not FAN2. that is the problem Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigl523 Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 speedfan does exactly what you are asking to do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGone Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 3.84W should be fine. However the part that I never understand is why anyone would load up a program to be always in the background monitoring a chipset all the way to bios level to adjust a fan and wonder why there can be problems. Especially some third party program. Now you got fans going up and down in speed drawing different loads across the board that the board then has to adjust for as well as the power supply because of varying the fan. Oh yes, we can all ooh and aah at the idea of such seeming masterful control of the little gewhizzes but is it really a good idea in the long run? I suppose it will fall to each his own but when I buzzed up to the 2900mhz range on air with 4 sticks of ram and 3 or 4 hard drives and ATAPI devices and SLI running and such on a performance board> fan monitoring will the very last thing I install in the way of other software I do expect to run and run well. It is a thought to consider.

mihapodb Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 hey can i plug this fan into cpu fan connector? cpu can reduce with program! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
_xhp_ Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 hey can i plug this fan into cpu fan connector? cpu can reduce with program! Yes you can, but I wouldn' recomend it... There are 3 controlable headers on the mobo, CPU, chipset and the third one - whay not use the third? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mihapodb Posted August 3, 2005 Posted August 3, 2005 becouse the third can only in bios not with program.......or can......i know i cant with ite smart guardian.......and why you dont recommend Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
