Chosen Solution
Hi, My unit has the widespread ‘fan buzz’ issue and I want to replace the stock fan with a quiet Corsair model. My question is - how do I fit a new fan into the system? The stock model is designed to fit precisely over the top of the heat sink. I’ve read stories of people successfully replacing the fan, so I imagine that it is possible. Would the new fan simply be ’loose’? Any help will be greatly appreciated! Andy
I’ve been working on this exact problem on my Youtube channel. I’ve gotten the first part of the video done but still need to do some testing. Here is the link for it. I’ve installed a silent wings 3 fan and used an adapter so I don’t have to change the wiring. Now I’m just testing to see if the motherboard will make the fan go faster when needed.
