yakabod 0 Posted September 17, 2005 We have 2 computers in the household. The computer that i am in right now the heatsink fan is pretty loud. Comparing to the other computer in my sister's room it is quiet and smooth. But this baby is starting to annoy me. I want to leave my computer idle at night but noooo the fan is too loud and i cannot sleep. I know its a Volcano but i dont know which one. I remember long time ago it came with a switch for the fan but small as it is.. i think i lost it. So is there any way where i can create this fan to be silent?? Thanks everyone.

jmmijo 1 Posted September 17, 2005 Is the power cable the (3)Three pin kind ?!? If so, is this connected to the CPU_FAN connector on the motherboard ?!? You should then be able to control the speed via the BIOS and the monitoring software that came with your motherboard and run it on the slower speed. Be aware that this heatsink should be the copper kind so you can properly cool the CPU while running the fan at a slower speed Share this post Link to post
