Hey, guys what rail does the case fans run off of. Speedfan is showing my 5v rail as 5.1 under load and the 12v at 12.24. should i unhook a fan??

I have 2 intake 2 outtake 1 infront of hd and a ys tek on my cpu

I have antec 350smartpower
sx835 case
xp2100 at 2400+ speeds
temps under load in the day range from 32-34c

I think i could oc more
 
i could've swear you already asked the exact same question last time.

you can def oc more. and no you don't need all 6, but at least 3 would be nice.
 
You likely have more than 6. Power supplies usually have 2, video cards as well. Heat can kill your rig, making sure that you have proper air flow is always a great idea.
 
Fans are 12v, that should answer your question. You can get them to run 7v by exchanging the ground wire for 5v but it'll still get it's power from the 12v line.
