Fan speed controller

Hey,

I just bought a new heatsink/fan for my cpu, and it came with a separate fan speed knob. If I hook it up, can that make the fan go any faster than it would without the fan controller? Or does it just make it go slower if you want it quieter, and the max speed is still the same?

See if you can push your fan in SpeedFan, otherwise it would be dangerous.

Fan control can be risky, since you are directly lowering the potential on your 5v rail, I doubt anything would try to push your rails just to speed up a fan, so no I guess.

Fan-mates are nice though, good for acoustics.

fm2 btw?
