    Fan Speeds

    Got two case fans which are too loud if wired as 12V default- have tried wiring them to the 5V lines instead- nearly works but a bit too slow.
    Was wondering if you can wire them in series on the 12 volt line thus getting 6 Volts on each.

    This is on a new system with 8RDA+ MB xp2100 @2320Mhz and 9700 Pro.
    With the case fans on 5V and running sandra burn in to steady state,I get temps of:- CPU 43.C and MB temp of 37.C. I'm not too worried about the CPU temp but thought the MB temp was high.
