Russ there's only 4 headers on that board and as. I look back at page 496 he has the pump pluged into PWR_FAN. I guess he has the radiator or one of fans pluged into the CPU_FAN and My guess the front case fan is pluged into SYS_FAN2 Question is what's pluged into the SYS_FAN1 ?? and video card is solo



as you can see the top arrow is the radiator fan and the bottom arrow is the front case fan cause on those haf 932 that's the max rpm's speed for that size fan.I'm guessing the third speed is the pump motor connection Fan#5 was a renamed cause you can rename your fans in everest another words Edit it another Question is What fan turns that Fast? I wanna know that..
Will,
I'm pretty sure the pump is connected to the power supply which is straight 12V, no matter what. Lot's of little fans turn that speed, although they are generally very small fans, 40-50mm or so. I've seen them as high as 18000 rpm, oops here's one at 19000!

this is really weird plugged case back in after oh hr ish unplugged posted looked at pc health and the cpu temp is back down to 23C so I don't know what was up with the temp earlier. most peculiar. I suppose the next step will be putting the 70mm fan back on the pump chassis. I found an extra hidden cable extender so can run the fan off the PSU and put the chassis fan back to sys 1 header

3kJodo,
Fine, but you didn't answer any of my questions. LOL!! Mainly, what was the fan plugged into. The plug could have fit right on the clear cmos connectors on some motherboards, and that would wreck havoc with the computer and do just what happened to you, or worse. I don't mean to lecture, but impatience=$$$. Sometimes big ones!

Here's the type of adapter you need for that fan plug. The connector on the motherboard should look something like it if it's standing pins up.

I believe Will nailed it. My Pump is connected to Mobo header PWR_FAN. There are NO fans in this case that can breach the 2,000rpm threshold. Let alone 4,000! The reading of 4383 is probably some kind of error, if the pumps max speed is 1200. My stock Coolit fan(Apparently 1800), is plugged into CPU fan header. The 1200 scythe is also plugged into one of the headers. As well as the 700Rpm Haf932 fan. It has to be the pump being read wrong and putting out that error...I'm at a loss too :p

Should I really be concerned here? I mean, 2W isn't difficult to power LOL! And auto settings are completely shut off in the bios. Full power all the time :D



To delete, or not to delete. THAT is the question!

3kJodo,
I found it. it was another post at the top of the page. You want to put the pump on the power supply header. It's 12v all the time, even if it should reset the bios in a crash. It's still best to power it from the PSU with an adapter. That way you can do whatever you like with the fans, and not accidentally move it to a header controlled by the motherboard. What fans are you using for the ECO, and which fan is front and which fan is rear? If you got the Scythe I recommended, it needs to be at the rear, blowing out. It will pull fine, but it lacks a lot of head pressure and will go bad as a push fan. Whatever you use you want the lower cfm fan on the front of the radiator blowing into the rad, and the stronger cfm one on the rear, pulling air out of the rad. It will be quieter because it won't cavitate, and cool better.

I put the one you reccomended scythe one between the rad and chassis and the one that came with the eco on the inside which I think is the way you are meaning for them to be. The pump is connected to one of the PSU cables I took an adapter off one of the chassis fans and plugged the chassis fan to mobo
though you mention pump into power supply header would that be the one by the atx header labelled pwr fan? if so I can easily enough switch the pump power back to pwr fan and put the push fan power on psu cable
I also looked up my heat sink and it says its alum block maybe my heat sink fan is just big boned

Sounds good. Was the fan you used for cooling the chipset from the heatpipe cooler that came with your CPU? If ss, that would explain why the loose fit. The cheapo AMD cooler that come with lesser CPUs have a 9 blade fan that moves a good bit of air and works great for cooling the chipset that way. It fits snug without needing anything to hold it down. The one that comes with the Phenom II has 7 smaller blades and moves less air, because of the small space between the fins needing less airflow. The ones from the cheap AMD coolers work great, move a good deal more air, and are very quiet since the space is so open. I'm going to put a long zip tie slipped under the mount and loop it around the fan so it won't ever fall out.

correct it is the fan that came on the heatsink in the amd cpu box ... ran down to count fan blades it has 7 blades... so I would need to procure a more bladed fan which might then fit snugly in the pump bracket slot

Oman7,
I would pull one fan header at a time and see what turns off in Everest. Just unplug and plug until you find it. I've seen weird fan speeds before with some no name fans. Did you see that 19000 rpm one I linked will? 40mm, that baby must scream!

19000Rpms is freakishly fast. I've never heard of anything quicker. That sucker must be unique in a way we've never read about LOL!

There's really nothing else that the 4383Rpm result could be. It has to be some miscommunication between the software and the board. I would bet money that if/when I remove the pump from the header, the high Rpms go with it ;) Not sure where I have an adapter, but I can find a way. I think I have 2 adapters in use in the case. I'll make one of the components relinquish it for the pump :p

But it already shows the power supply occupied, so why would it read it at another location, especially at a different speed? That doesn't make any sense! I don't think unplugging the pump and powering it from the PSU will make it go away.

BTW, did you try the fan mod to lower the MB temp?

I haven't tried the fan mod yet.

Ok. I think I goofed. The 1200 reading is the Power supply. The scythe is ran directly to molex. I shall connect the scythe to the PWR_FAN, and give the pump its direct connection.
Give me roughly 20 minutes, then I'll post the result ;)

Cool! Did you look at that fan? 40x40x28mm, 19000 rpm, 59.9dBA, 6.5 watts! I couldn't stay in the same room with that much noise! :)

LOL! I think my 1900 Scythe is pushing over 30dBA. Its pretty obnoxious. I can only imagine what that sucker sounds like. Probably like a blow dryer!!!
I'd like to manually control that scythe too. Probably software...but I won't hold my breathe...

What in God's Green Earth did you ever buy that beast for! That mother moves some serious air (110 cfm), but it also makes 37dBA doing it. I have a Zalman controller from my 9500. You're welcome to it, if you want it! You just have to connect two plugs. One from the MB header, and the other to the fan. You adjust it with a rheostat, right on the top of it. I only used it for about a week and then hooked the Zalman to the CPU controller on the MB! It just sat in the Cavalier case for a couple of years unused. I just tried it and it works fine. Nice solid controller though. You're more than welcome to it! Tune that baby down some and have peace and quiet!

Actually, I rarely run that pc anymore. I'll find a way. Much appreciated though Russ. I like a good challenge ;) Fact of the matter is, I have very few 120mm fans. All of them are in use. And that pc requires one to stay cool. If I remove that 1900 scythe, things will heat up beyond "hells hot"! LOL! The 1200 scythe used to reside there. It's all good...
Here are the new readings. As you can see, disconnecting the pump, removed the high rpm error.

Just made a discovery. Saw that my CPU temps were higher than normal, and felt the back of the tower. Felt like the scythe wasn't running. IT WASN'T. I forgot to plug it in. I plugged it in while the PC was running. Not a practice I recommend mind you. But you see, the sensor cord(Yellow), was already plugged in. Its molex simply wasn't plugged in. The second I plugged it in, Everest's real time kicked in, and showed that I plugged in the Power Supply fan. Which of course it is not. Looks like another bug in their software. And the PSU IS running at 700. That sound better sam :p You were worried about it running at 1200...

No more 49C for the motherboard either, I see. 29/35 for the CPU and cores. I would imagine you should see about 43 for the CPU stressed with IBT! How did you get the MB temp down to 36? The error is probably the type of motor in it and gives false readings. Not all motors will give accurate results, but I'm puzzled as to why it was showing up different places with different rpms.

The motherboard temp is down, as long as I'm not stressing. If I stress, it shoots up ;) The post above is at idle.

Do the fan mod and it will go away. I experienced the same problem. Mine got all the way to 53, and now the highest it's been in an 85F/29C room I deliberately let get that warm, is 40C. You can't hurt anything so try it. That MB temp was with the video card back in the 16x slot, too! If anything it will also help the Video card's temps a little bit as well. The fan will blow right on the back of the card! Damn near silent too!
