ok here is ma problem. i want to run my pc 24/7 but it has an annoying fan inside. its 60 mm and it has no brand on it. i have an aluminium HSF, and no 80 mm mounting spot so my 3 options are:
1. get a vantec noiseless 60mm fan
2. get a fan converter so i can out an 80mm noisless fan
3. get a rheostat so i can turn it down.
these appeal to me BECAUSE
1. cheaper, less hassle installing, all i want to know is will it do an acceptable job (im not going to o/c)
2. better performance, but i dont really care unless i have instabilities due to heat
3. seems risky, as i may turn it down too far before i go to bed and wake up to a toasted CPU
just asking for your thoughts, guys.
oh i forgot one thing, i have one blowhole at front bottom and one at back middle for 80mm fans. i have a .18 micron williamette :(. this machine is used for light gaming, homework and F@H (which i want to run 24/7)
MANY THANKS
