The first one was actually the one I was thinking about. I'm pretty sure the motherboard can control the speed of the fan, so I don't think I need the nob though.

ive seen the temps yours runs at

:roll: cuz i have it next to the Window :cool: outside kind of cold, i'll try it just at room temps later if you want cuz im need to get some sleep

and i have the side off all the time and i got a cheap Central Air Conditioner filter so i wont get dust and dirt from the outside with my 9" fan blowing the cold air in to the case

but i always use my 9" fan before it was cold

so whats your idle and load temps at stock with the furry dice then i'll try mine later

your case is closed right do you got any intake fans?

So, if my well ventilated case isn't enough to keep the temps down on my x1950XT when I get it all set up (should be here today, it's out for delivery), what replacement fan/heatsink would you guys recommend? I'm might go the water route in the distant future, but not right now.
