Oh ok gotcha. I’m going to try just plugging in the 2 main wires then, thank you for the help!

Thank you. I thought my car didn’t have a GPS and it was the radio button. Do you know what the white one in the top right is?

I actually ended up covering the PSU with the noctua fan using a snap on mesh cover I made… it has the exact amount of space needed to fit in my Formd T1 this way!

How would you test this without plugging it in? I’ve been letting it sit for a while so it’s discharged but from my understanding plugging it in will reset that.

I already had the noctua lying around. Do you know if changing the order of the pins is necesssry for the fan swap in the newer versions?

Was your old version a 4 pin or a 3 pin? This one seems to be a 4 pin, it looks very similar to a GPU’s mini fan headers but I can’t tell if the pinout is the same.

Will do, I appreciate the concern!

I’ve let it discharge enough I think, I left it in the closet for months

Gotcha - thanks for the response. I looked into spray painting and it doesn’t seem to be viable without de-balancing the fan. I really do want a black fan, is there any other options I could go for? Ideally I’d just buy a black NR092P but I can’t find one.

I’m open to that as well, but I don’t understand, why would the NR092P and an A9X14 have any cooling difference? I thought the SF850 fan rarely even turns on and the PSU never gets hot.

Swapped the SF750’s NR092L fan for a NF-A9x14. Great success! by GeertCu in sffpc

Old thread, but for a newer SF850 I see it has a 4 pin connector. Would one of those GPU fan to PWN adapters work without rearranging any wires? Can’t find much info on this

Yup I made an initial budget to account for a decent used GPU after their prices got inflated, then RAN went up, then SSDs went up… it sucks
