TweFoju Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 Hi guys, so i just bought the 600T for a week been satisfied with it but i have 1 question regarding the front Fan Controller which fan does the controller control? because it seems that no matter how you lower the fan or make it higher, the wind blowing is still the same, it's not increasing or decreasing as i turn the controller back and forth so how do i know that the controller is working? is it controlled by software based or something? how do i know that it's working or not? hope i can get some enlightenment here :p: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TweFoju Posted November 22, 2010 Author Share Posted November 22, 2010 anyone? anybody? is there a software to read the rpm of the stock fan of 600T? so that i know the controller is actually working and actually rotates the fan faster as i turn slider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenixlight Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 The controller doesn't really do anything, it makes no difference to cpu temperature at high and low and only lowers the GPU temperature by 1*C http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/cases/2010/09/23/corsair-graphite-600t-review/2 It should be controlling all 3 stock fans.

Carlos68 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 The problem is the stock 200mm fans are so slow (700rpm) to start with that the controller does very little if however you use different fans then the controller does work really well :biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TweFoju Posted December 17, 2010 Author Share Posted December 17, 2010 Yeah, actually i found out the the stock fan speed are the problem, i asked the retailer store guy, and he said that the fan controller are rather useless as it doest not make any difference, min are about 700ish rpm and max are 800 if i recall for the 200mm fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denydog Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 I've read that the 600T 200mm fans are rated at 800 RPM. A fan controller can not make a fan run faster than its rated speed. So the controller on the 600T (or on any case) can only slow the fan down, not speed it up. I wouldn't be surprised if the fan on mine slows to 600 RPM at the low setting. That's not a lot of difference, but really, how slow do people want the fan to run? 400 RPM? Remember, the controller can not make the stock fan any faster than 800 RPM. I might want faster, or more powerful fans on mine someday, but I don't see any problems with the controller at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
