So, Ive got a Thermaltake, just started using, got it from someone.

It had a lot of things, so it needed a lot of fans, but most of it has been removed, but there are still 10 fans!!!
And it is crazy noisy, I cant figure out a way to lower fanspeed, or shut some of them down, I need help!

What can I do to lower noise coming outside? How can I control ALL my FANS?

Thanks in advance!

p.s. my head is hurting.
 
it has only one. and it is already on minimum.

The problem I think is that the system on BIOS shows CPU temp at 92!! and that is not acurate for sure, cuz all fans working perfectly and its super clean, and disk is rather empty etc etc.
So maybe thats why they are runnining like crazy.
 
What cpu do you have? The cpu fan might not be doing its job, Is the sound coming from the cpu fan, or a case fan?
 
ive stoped with my finger, 3 of the 4 case fans, and the noise lowers a bit, i guess the all noise comes from the ''symphony'' of 9 fans going full speed.

CPU fans are too little and I didnt do it, Shall I? or ill ruin something?

CPU:Type : Intel Pentium 4
Internal Specification : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz
Codename : Prescott
 
If you honestly have 9 fans just on your case, unless your rig runs hotter than the earths core, you could disable a few non essential ones. And it is not the best idea to stop fans with your fingers. It seems like this case has been modified, so i would reccomend talking to the previous owner to find out which fans are non essential, and how you would disable them/if they can be adjusted.
 
not case fans, its 4 case fans, then the rest are on the power unit, and CPU motherboard etc.

Previous owner died.. I need better insight on this:&
 
If they are case fans they will all plug into the motherboard somewhere.

If, as you say, everything has been removed and the fans are not required, unplug them from the board. They are a simple pull off the board.
 
If BIOS is showing you 92C for your CPU then I suggest cleaning out all dust/ debris from your PC and apply new thermal compound on your CPU (making sure there is no debris around the fans, the fans are probably being spun at high speeds because the high temps are being detected). You can also monitor your temps using programs like Speccy and SpeedFan. If you think the programs and the BIOS are giving you bad readings about your CPU temp, then the BIOS may or may not allow you to change the speed of your fans, SpeedFan may also allow you to control fan speeds. It may be that the fans cannot be controlled, you could do this manually, refer to this article: http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/79
It doesn't seem like you would need 4 case fans, you could probably get away with just using 2 of them (or even just one of them) and unplugging the other 2 to reduce noise (you would still have 7 fans anyways).

The case fans, dont make all the racket.
Its the MotherBoard fans, like 7 of them, and they are so tiny, and fast moving, I dont know what their purpose is, and how i disconect them!!

SpeedFan only lets me control 1 fan, and doesnt make diference.
 
If they are plugged into the motherboard, enter the BIOS and set all the fans to the lowest level. If they are plugged into molex connectors, you're outta luck.

Your motherboard has 7 fans on it or attached to it?
