zalman CNPS9700 NT rpm

[koOp]

ive just noticed that my CNPS9700 NT only spins at 2400rpm on high and its suppose to spin at 2800rpm, anyone know how i can fix this?

From newegg: "Normal Mode 2800±10 % RPM"

+ or - 10% = about 2500, and that's where mine runs so it's normal.

oh right sorry didn't see the ±10 %
one more thing, in bios where is 3pin or 4pin for cpu fan, does it matter which one its on? cus its currently on 4pin and its a 3pin plugged into my mobo

The 4-pin connector is for pwm while the 3-pin connector is like any other fan connector.

When it comes to RPM, the plus and minus 10% is always there. I have a CNPS 9700NT as well, love the green glow . It all fine with me, the only gripe I have about it is that the its really hard to clean the fins, its really tedious as there are so many of them.
