Too many fans and it will sound like a harrier jump-jet taking off.
You are better off getting heat-sinks for your RAM chips, as they are more-or-less the only major hardware.. piece without "protection".

Sorry for the double post again.
Any way, I checked the video card fan to day. It was running and working fine!
But there is a problem, it does not cool the video card really well. I have 2 power supplies that I don't use so I took the fan from one of them and wanted to put it inside of the case. Do you guys thing it is a good idea?

Yes, if you can find a dedicated socket for it (or have a spare bulgin one from your PSU and use an adapter) and if you position it efficiantly.
|
What I was think is that i could cut off the plasting thing off a little from the wire that is on the cpu cooler and then add the wire of the new fan in the cpu wire.
My dad says that it will slow down the cpu cooler. Is that true?

Splitting any current is often a bad idea, no matter if it's in a computer, or a car.
If you have no idea on how to install a water cooler, then you shouldn't even bother with tinkering with the computers internal circuitry.
Take it to a professional.
