Please explain more to me or do you know of a web site I could look up. All of the fans that I have used on PCs had no electronics in them. If what you say is true, that means the fan when hooked up properly, it will blow air down into the vanes of the heatsink, correct? Was I off base on any other subjects in my reply for help on the fan problem? John _________________________________________________________________ Tired of spam?
