BigDawgs av is a "spinner" on a mag wheel.
It is a very popular mod with NBA stars and pimps everywhere.

Abu, I have tried those "smartfans" and think they are useless.
I ended up circumventing the thermal control feature ( basically, a resistor) so the fans would actually move some air.
Before I eliminated the resistor I extended it's wiring and tried the fan with the thermal sensor laying on my heatsink.

Even then, the damn thing would hardly move, and was totally ineffective as a cooling component.

My advice...save your money and get a real fan. If your Tornado is too loud why not just invest in a fan speed control panel or volt mod it?
ok. thanks. i'll try soemthing else
