I bought a SilverStone FM122. They're pretty expensive. And pretty loud also.
It came with a thing to attach it to rheostat, and a rheostat.
So, I attached them.
That's when I found out the fan was noisy.
I was fitting some new Neon to the case over the weekend, when what did I spy, but a switch with the same connector on it, for the neon. Excellent, thought I, a way to switch the fan on and off.
Clearly, Karma was biting me for dropping out of electronics at school.
I ran 12v up the control line, and blew the fan immediately.
Loads of smoke poured out.
I was just glad it wasn't the CPU.

I am also using the FM122, powerful 120mm fan package with manual adjustable fan controller. I believe Silverstone really needs to work on this, if the 2pin is not connected then fan should just run at 100%.
