Quick question, I have a 92mm x30mm stock fan from Dell that's on exhaust in the back of my case. I think it's getting old and starting whine, so I want to replace it. It has a temp probe, and connects to the mobo w/ a weird connector (looks like the end of a CD-IN cable connector for audio). There is also a normal 3-pin connector next to it. Can I replace it w/ a non-thermal probe fan, or will this screw up my mobo? Thx, : peace2: Mista K6

well, depends, does the monbo have fan contoll monitor? , if it does, ucan disable it, an get a non thermal fan monitor fan.
or, i suggest u get a thermal take smart fan 1, or 2. it has thermal monitoring, and is oange, -
Well, it's all automatic, because the Dell BIOS are very limited, and there's nothing about temp control in there (I'll check again tho). So, even with it on, and I plug in a non-temp fan, what happens? My main thing here is that I want to put in something quiet. I was thinking of a Vantec Stealth 92mm. It pushes 28CFM of air, but is only 20dB. My setup is runs very cool, so lower CFM is not an issue: I just want it to be quiet. Thx, : peace2: Mista K6Comment
