I have my fan controller cranked all the way up, but using EasyTuner5 it shows the fan RPM hovering in the 1500's. This heatsink was suppose to have a max of 2500 Is there any way I can have it so that its running at a higher speed all the time?
so all i have to do is unplug the controller? i'm curious, is there a way to have the fan run at full speed constantly? i have a gigabyte ds3 mobo, not sure if i should adjust anything in the bios to make this happen, as i have the settings on auto i believe.
Yes. You can run the fan at full speed all the time.
1. Plug it to the motherboard's fan header that does NOT support thermal monitoring.
2. Using 4pin-to-3pin adaptor, plug it directly to the PSU. -> Lots of cables can be found everywhere. Like here: http://www.sidewindercomputers.com/fancuca.html
As you can easily guess #2 is generally more preferable than #1, but really it should be fine either way.
curses! i have a gigabyte ds3...do you have any idea on where i should look for the other fan header? also, i'm not sure if this helps, but i have a seasonic 500w psu...would i need an adapter for this?
The Zalman 9500AT (note: not 9500LED) is the 4-pin, non-lit up version of the zalman. It let's the mobo decide on the speed and my ASUS P5W DH also let's me choose to disable any kind of 'quiet fan' mode and let it run at max RPM, all the time, instead.
