Re: fans
would the fans run faster of the psu or the mobo because i have seen some reviews where they have run the cooler fans of the psu and got better results and seen some where they got better of the mobo

Re: fans
The CPU fans should be PWM style fans. That's a Four-Pin connector on the fan that plugs into a four pin plug on the motherboard. This allows the motherboard to control the fan's speed according to the temps you're getting. If thing warm-up, the motherboard sends a signal to the fan to speed up to counter the heat. When things are cool, the motherboard slows the fans down too.
Some fan controllers have a PWM plug on them that goes to the motherboard. You can set the fan controller up to "read" the PWM signal and control the speed of every fan (faster or slower) that's connected to the controller at the same time.

Re: fans
This is my preferred method. Great balance of silence and cooling performance.Originally Posted by killjoyjim
After trying numerous PWM fans, the best I've found are the Noctua NF-F12's followed in distant second place by the Cougar Vortex.
The best non-PWM (3 pin) case fans I've found so far are the Bitfenx Spectre Pro fans.
When it comes to fans, my experience has taught me to not skimp on price and buy the expensive ones. At least in this area, you really do get what you pay for.

Re: fans
Similar to my set up. I have my 7 Bitfenx fans on a Sentry Mix controller, and the 4 Noctua NF-F12's on my rad are connected to my motherboard for PWM signal but are powered by the PSU with this cool little gizmo. GELID PWM 1-TO-4 Cable Splitter Adapter Share Case Fan | eBay

Re: fans
All of my case fans are running off of the PSU's power and at full speed. (but they're all quiet fans)
My H-80's two 120mm Cougar fans are PWM controlled by the motherboard.
I also have a ceiling fan,........(so what)
