thanks for that

i can now control my CPU fan which is kool

but my akasa still insists on full speed, i tried another akasa fan (Exactly the same model) and i had the same problem, also i had this problem on my old EPoX nForce 3 Ultra mobo.

A random name said:
Dont the akasas already push very little air? Why do you want to take it down even further?

for your information, this fan pushes more than 3 times the amout of air than the stock AMD fan. i've unplugged it now tho because the noise is driving me nuts, even tho it's generally quieter than the CPU fan, at least u can control the CPU fan.

thanks joe, i'll be ordering one of those wires tonite along with another 1GB Geil Value set

yeh i am and don't worry,

Geil Value can only do 2T anyway

if u run 1GB geil value at 1T the timings go down

u must be runing a lower FSB, the ram is simply not capable at that, i've tried on 2 motherboards with voltage on 2.8
