Paul,

Is it too late to return the fan? Why not save the power cable and buy a fan which fits the FAN2 pin. I just bought an additional one for $10 from the NUT. That way you can use the power cable for something else.

MB Hardware question:
I just bought another fan, a squirrel cage from radio shack. 12v ball bearing brushless. It has a brown plastic 2 prong plug on it. Same brown color as 'FAN2' on the BH6 ... but it has 2 prongs and the base is too thick for FAN2. I will probably just butcher a 5.25" disk drive extension power cable so I can plug it into a standard plug.
Anybody know what that plug fits? Any better ideas for how to power the fan up?

(I'm gonna point it at my ATI All-in-1der to blow it down from 120 to only 90 degrees. The ATI manual suggested that 120 was the limit of acceptable operating temperature.)


Regards,
Orbit

Pae, is this the AIW, or AIW Pro card? 120 degrees seems pretty low for a max temperature. If AIWP, you might toss me a page # if you have it handy (I'm running one.)

TIA,

Dave
