    PC no longer boots with new fan. Need to add more current to CPU_FAN connection.

    Because I want it to be silent. I did solve it today though. I got one of these and it was enough to boot the PC. Thanks everyone!

    PC no longer boots with new fan. Need to add more current to CPU_FAN connection.

    The box itself is so tight that there aren't any places to put it at. I added a link to the barebone system above. The fan I'm trying to exchange is the one in the back. (the "smart fan") Another though: Would it be completely mad to hook up the DVD drive to the CPU FAN connector with...

    PC no longer boots with new fan. Need to add more current to CPU_FAN connection.

    This sounds like a good solution. I don't have the knowledge to come up with something without doing extensive amount of research though. :smile: I can solder alright, but I don't know what parts to get to get this to work. Any ideas? Replacing a resistor on the MB sounds a little scary. I...

    Thank you for your replies. I'm starting to think a resistor may not be the best solution and that probably should try to find some other "device" to connect as well. I just don't know what yet. The airflow shouldn't be a problem. This is a custom build computer and I have chosen energy...

    PC no longer boots with new fan. Need to add more current to CPU_FAN connection.

    Thank you. Maybe 12v ÷ 0.18A = 66,7 is more accurate as I already have 0.18A on the fan that's connected? I'd rather not have to disconnect it as I would prefer to just mount the fan, close the case and forget about it. Do you have any other suggestion? Maybe I could add a 12v lamp (led...

    PC no longer boots with new fan. Need to add more current to CPU_FAN connection.

    I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but I'll give it a try. I have a PC with a rather noisy fan which I'd like to replace so I got a new one with lower RPM and of better quality. However, there is one little problem: The PC won't boot with the new fan. I contacted the...
