jtsymbo said:Gordo, thanks for all the great info you have provided all of us. You have helped this newbie very much and I love my Hackintosh.
I have the Fractal Design Define R3 case as well and I have some questions about cooling:
1) Do you only have the 3 fans, 2 in the front and 1 in the back? None in the top?
2) Are you using Fractals variable fan controller supplied with the case?
3) All my fans are running full speed all the time, is there a solution to back them off when the computer is idling? Something tied to the bios maybe or sensitive to the case temperature?
Thanks for any help!!

1) I have 4 fans on the case, 2 in front, 1 in back, 1 on the bottom. I did not put any on the top/side because it would make the noise greater.
2) No, I just use silent fans
3) You can do this with software, but since I cannot hear my computer anyway, I have no need for this.
