    Maybe since you CPU is a 920 instead of a 820, the fan spins slower. I couldn't tolerate the noise of a 820 based system :eek:

    Oh ok. But I just told you to add one in front of the hdds rather than underneath them. I didn't say it was compulsory to have fans for hdds, right?

    The power cable????

    Not those fans with molex connectors. There are fans which has both the molex connector and the three pin motherboard power connector. You have to use those fans to read the RPM. But they usually spi at 2000-2500 RPM at the default 12V (0.1A)
