fan noise
I have just built a set-top PC using the EPIA M10000 board. It would have been a complete silent PC if it weren't for the single 40mm CPU fan. This fan spins at 6800rpm regardless of CPU temp, and is creating more noise than I would like in a set-top box. Anyone have experience with noise reduction for this mobo? |

Replace it with a 80mm fan.
That will be quiet enough, you got the room ? On Fri, 28 Nov 2003 07:34:27 -0500, Siren wrote: I have just built a set-top PC using the EPIA M10000 board.

Don't Sunon make 40mm vapo bearing fans? Would those move enough air when the CPU gets hot? -- spammage trappage: replace fishies_ with yahoo |

The easiest solution would be to pick yourself up one of those little single fan speed controllers. Hank |
