What will happen if it doesn't spin up? Uh, it doesn't blow air. I'll leave it running for now and see how it goes. It's a side vent and my case happens to positioned along the wall with that vent is facing me, so I can always see it. And if it failed then the PC will still run and there is plenty of time for temp alarms to kick in. [Thinks] .. I'll give it one more listen at 7v -- Lordy My Lian Li has fan controllers and when I installed a TT SubZero TEC cooler and it's PSU, the PSU can control fan speeds too. I had all my fans running at medium speed (9v I think) at first and the front two 80mm didn't spin up at all until I realized that the TT PSU was cutting the voltage down to approx 5v. Funny thing, the top exhaust and the rear fan spun up fine. Once I turned the case fans up to normal speed, everything was fine. Ed |
