Fan controller problems

[Afterlife737]

Hey everyone,

 

I just purchased a Sycthe kq01-bk to quieten down my four AF140's in my Corsair 350D. It did it's job real good and when the PC was under my desk I couldn't hear a thing... But the problem is that my PC sits ON my desk... I could just about hear the fans spinning and knowing myself I would never accept the fact I could have swapped it for another with NO sound at all. And another reason why I'm switching is because this fan controller ranges from 5.6V-12V ( 40% - 100% ) and I need a bit more headroom since I had them all the way down So I found this Lian-Li fan controller that fits into my 3,5" bay just like this one and ranges from 3,7V-12V (20%-100%) giving me the desired level of fan speed and noise. 

Will this solve my problem with noise ?? 

 

Thnx !

Depends on how much you can undervolt your fans.

If they don'y undervolt very well then don't buy the lian li one.

Try to dampen the sound.

Well I don't now how low the AF140 can go...Think they can handle 3,7V ?
