Hey guys I just was currious how you are powering your upgraded fans. ( assuming you did the stage 3 mod ) Are you guys powering any of these off of the motherboard, or are they all being powered from the psu? I'm guestimating my parts should be here by Wed. I ordered them Fri. afternoon. ---impatient---

I powered them ALL from the PSU. The mobo does some strange things when you power "higher" CFM fans from it. System beeps....namely.
Higher CFM Rated Fans Should NEVER, EVER be Powered from the Mobo. Yet I tried it anyway, and understand why. Its more a safety precaution than anything.
*Higher CFM: 40-45CFM or Higher! To be on the safe side.
Your fans will come with all the necessary wires, grills, pass thru power connector "rigs".
Don't forget to take a couple o' Pics.

Hasn't shipped yet, email says, " on back order."
Im about to say forget it, and go online and buy it. I pre-ordered the dam thing over a month ago. If I don't here back from this customer service guy by Thursday, Im cancelling my order, and WILL NEVER do business with Bestbuy for v.cards again.
*Their return policy is the only thing stopping me.
