God DAMN Antec. When are you going to figure out that nobody wants your dumbass fans with speed switches attached to the fans, WHERE NOBODY CAN GET AT THEM WHEN THE CASE IS CLOSED?
These fans are controlled by two-speed switches by the IO area on the case, so you do have external access. Check the pictures. :toast:
I think they mean DAMPING (reducing the level of something). ;)
Google is a wonderful thing.
