Tuniq Tower help quick question!!

or two...

1. The fan connector on the TT to plug into the cpu_fan on the motherboard is 3 pin, but the motherboard cpu_fan is 4 pin. I can still plug it in fine, is that ok to do that?

2. I want to control it using this zalman fan controller

instead of the back of the case PCI plate fan controller that it comes with. but the connector on the TT to control it is only 2 pin..I dont think this zalman supports that. Is there any way to do it? Could I replace it with an akasa amber fan which is standard 3 pin? I dont think it can be replaced though cause theres nothing to hold it in place..

It can be replaced as it can be taken out and put back in. not sure how though as i dont have one. But i know it can be done. So have another look.

actually your right i think i can

but is one of these amber fans powerful enough for it (1400rpm)? I wouldnt run at 2000 anyway if its noisy at that speed.

Just realised you cant control the RPM on these amber fans anyway. Can you reccomend a fan?

You can if you plug it into the fan controller.

You can run a Tuniq fine off that controller with the default fan. I know this as I have this controller and a Tuniq

Tis' an awesome controller aswell :cool:
