Re: PEEK Fan not running as advertised?

How carefully did you make sure tugging on the PEEK-labeled wires pulled the knotted wires towards the tower? All that knotting and labeling funny-business just comes down to making sure you've identified the same pair of wires at the top and the bottom. I probably double-checked which wires were ...

Re: PEEK Fan not running as advertised?

So i opened here up and pulled the Rambo out to verify that it's wired correctly and I have the wires labeled PEEK going to HEAT 1 just as the planning states.

Re: Hello from Sacramento :)
