I don't know. They are pretty loud at full speed, supposedly 45DBa and 85CFM, but the new ones seem more like 35DBa and 70-75CFM.
They are silent at half-speed. And oiling them could possibly help very much to quiet them. I guess it depends on how high quality the oil is that Yate Loon used.
you've also removed the frontal cover, is it to let them work better without get dust accumulation? That's not safe too.
Well I'm not too worried. Seeing as how I have accidentally stuck my fingers in every case fan I have owned and most likely hurt the fan a lot more then my fingers (the worst that happened was once I broke a finger nail....wow that sounded stupid...).
I did it to quiet the fans. The guards add noise, and from my experience guards for intake fans increase noise the most, and I want my fans to run as quiet as possible. I plan on cutting off the guard on the back of the case and cutting out the guards on the front fan mounts.
Well three fans are broken? How could happen that?
Well one I was testing and stuff while holding it...and dropped it, and one of it's fan blades broke off.
Another I stepped on.
And another one a wire came out of. I would have to completely take apart the plug (break it, basically) to rewire it.
And how can be possible use oil for them? They're always electrical parts, not mechanical ones...
Well from what I have read and the pictures I have seen,--at least most pc fans--they have a chamber underneath the sticker that is on them. The sticker is there to keep the motor from drying out. You drop a
very small amount of oil into the hole. I have read that it is a good idea to oil them every once in awhile to keep them from getting louder and to extend their life.
It seems a bit earlier to oil them since they are brand new but maybe I will do it anyway; I'm sure I could get better oil then what was used on them when made. I think.
The desk is still the same, now much more worn.
Haha, yeah.
