Not true, 3 pin controls with voltage. 4 pins control with PWM, hence why those fans come with a reducing resistor in the box to run a 7 volts, there is a way to do it, but something must be wrong with the board or I am not looking into it right.
If yuo say so. But I have yet to see any RPM control on a 3 pin yet. Bythat I mean any that is not just the board saying "I'm controlling it" while it is actually doing nothing.


Gee thanks Wolfe lol.... could have mentioned that in my thread "Looking for some fans" before i bought these Noctua fans lol.
You could have asked better. Your thread asked for High CFM fans, which the HSP Air does not give. It is a Static Pressure performer. CFM =/= Static Pressure.

I have also never seen a 3 pin PWM fan, only 4, if you have the standard +12v & ground, plus the tach monitor on the 3rd wire, how is there pwm control? is the third line split?

Right now I have all my fans (CPU fan and case fans running through my motherboard. Running Asus's Fan Xpert 2, in which i set at what percentage at what temperature the fan kicks up. Is this what you are talking about? They all run 4 pin connector?

True, i should have clarrified more, but I have horrible knowledge with fans. All i knew is that i needed a fan with high air output with low dBA rating. These Noctua fans do that. They are keeping my computer about 13C cooler than my last ones, and i can barely hear them running. Partly because of this "Fan Xpert2" software.

Hyper, best gaming rig 2k13? :p
Considering he got it all for free it's not bad at all. But seeing the pictures, I have been reminded just how horrible OEM cases are. I mean, look at how the hard drive is mounted. Looks like a right pig to change.

I have to change all the old Dell Dimensions and Optiplex HDDs at work. Those things are impossible to open up and when they are open you get a heart attack from the dust and shitty cable management

Not sure exactly how old this is,no manufacture date on the back,It has a Model number (SDT1000) Made by Samsung for Time Computers but Google doesn't really tell me anything about it. :cool:

Its mechanical,keys are very responsive..only thing i hate is its soooo loud,Not good at all for those late night gaming sessions. :D

My Microsoft 3000 keyboard started to play up. :(

Look at the Windows keys! It's got the pre-Windows XP Windows logo on them! :O

I know,It works flawless though and its not even badly discolored like most of them are,I don't think its seen much use.

You should feel how heavy it is,Quality. :D

My first case. It actually doesnt have a Pentium 4 in it now, it has my Core 2 Quad in my sig, and it has 0 cable management lol

Oh... and see my amazing Red Wii and PS2! My USB Light I made, and my messy third desk :D
 
When was that case bought? 3000 years ago? jk :rolleyes:

About three or four, it was the first time that I actually "built a computer". When I say built, I mean put parts from a Packard Bell Istart 2369 (Pentium 4 HT with 512mb RAM) and put it in the case, so it actually looked and sounded a lot more powerful than it actually is. I wanted something with a massive panel, and picked it up from Maplin.

It now has Mums Core 2 Quad in it though :)
