Does anyone know there are any quiet 90mm case fan with 4 pin connector for the header on the motherboard? It's a Dell Optiplex GX620 mid sized desktop computer and has a 5 pin header for CPU fan. The fan needs to be replaced. We can't get the Dell genuine part from the place due to various reasons. Trying to find other fan that may work. Can the 3 pin connector from case fan work on a 5 pin header on Dell motherboard?
And no, going with a 4 pin molex connector with a new fan isn't a solution as if you don't have a fan connected to the CPU fan header the computer freaks out and throw out a warning message "System fan has failed" where you'll have to press F1 key to bypass every time you reboot your computer. Not a solution for our clients. Any one has good solution? No, replacing the PC is out of question. thanks bye
