    Question How to Control a Power Supply's Fan Speed Either by Software or by Physical Intervention

    My old (we're talking 2007ish old) no name power supply doesn't spin fast enough (we're talking 40rpm, yes I actually counted it), and it's uncomfortably hot to the touch, it doesn't necessarily burn you, but it's hot enough to make you feel like something has to be done about it. I know how...
