I jsut recently learned how to change fan voltage from 12 volts to 7 volts. I like quiet computers. I just recently put a silencer in my power supply (28 CFM my freakin' butt!!!). The system was pretty quiet except for the CPU fan. The RDJD k701 was pretty quiet on it's own. I think it's rated at 28 dB. I still thought it was still loud so I ran the voltage down from 12v to 7v. Everything is much quieter. I can hear my hard driv now. the thing is that i don't know if i'll overheat. I dropped my comp 50 mhz to 850 mhz and droped voltage back to 1.6v from 1.75 that i needed to run 900mhz. Everything SEEMS fine but i'm not sure. Was it a good idea?
