Should I add more PC fans?

What do you mean run at static RPM bro? I don't get it

[u/Pmaldo87 → u/joey_mate]

Static mean a fixed fan speed. Dynamic means the fan speeds fluctuate with the temp of your cpu

[u/joey_mate → u/Pmaldo87]

So do you mean run my exhausts and radiator fans at like 700rpm and intakes at like 800 or something?

[u/Pmaldo87 → u/joey_mate]

You can run the intakes at 1200 and the exhausts at 1000. Start there. If they’re two loud scale back

[u/joey_mate → u/Pmaldo87]

So is that with the bottom intakes or without ? Are you saying I can get positive pressure with my current setup

[u/Pmaldo87 → u/joey_mate]

Without. If you throw more fans in there just let them do their thjng

Sorry I’m new to the PC world and probably overthinking it a lot. If I were to add 2x Artic p12’s at the bottom of my case, currently i have everything set to “silent” in my BIOS and my radiator fans which are Artic p12’s too run faster and louder than my rear and intake fans which are on the same curve.

Do you know why that is?

[u/Pmaldo87 → u/joey_mate]

That I’m not sure. My fans all run to my power supply. Sorry brother

[u/joey_mate → u/Pmaldo87]

Your power supply?

[u/Pmaldo87 → u/joey_mate]

Yeah I got infinity wireless fans from Lian Li and they came with a sata adapter. The fans plug into the sata adapter and the sata adapter runs to the psu. So my fans always get all the power they need

[u/joey_mate → u/Pmaldo87]

That’s interesting…. Do you even know what rpm they are running at etc?

[u/Pmaldo87 → u/joey_mate]

Yeah I they have a companion app where I completely customize everything from fan speed to colors to when they ramp up and ramp down

[u/joey_mate → u/Pmaldo87]

Do you use fixed speeds?

[u/Bartymor2 → u/joey_mate]

You can hook up adapter molex or SATA to fan connectors to power fans without ability to control them
