More Information

I want to pull some case fans from the Raidmax Smilodon and replace with Arctic PWM fans and daisy chain them to my Arctic Freezer Pro to control fan speed with Speedstep. (Motherboard is a p35-DS3L which has exactly one PWM enabled fan header.)

That front 120mm intake looks like a bastard to get at. It's between the drive-bay cage and the front panel of the case.

Has anyone had any experience replacing this fan before I start bringing the trauma to my case?

I have the same set up as you and have been looking at adjusting the fan speed as well, i run ET6 but it does not recognize the two system fan's. Although when i look at my system info it lists the CPU speed as 3.00 GHZ and the second as 2.22 GHZ which means that Speedstep is already active.

Is there no way to control the fan speed with the default fan's that come with the raidmax smilodon set up? Anyways i am fairly new to the desktop world as i only ever had notebooks so now am getting to know the in's and out's.

Although to get to the front fan you can pull out the whole HDD enclosure quiet easily maybe try that.

I am NOT a tech pro yet so if some of this makes you laugh i understand as i am at kindergarten level with this stuff but if you find a way to control the system speed fan let me know thanks.
