Noctua Fan 5v or 12v confusion

Post by Anonymouse »

Hi there,

I am wanting to do the fan mod to my Dreamcast but there seems to be differing info regarding what voltage to use.

Can someone tell me what voltage fan I should get. I currently have the 12v version but seem to think this is the wrong one. I dont want to have to solder onto the PSU, I want it to connect into the fan connector to keep it as original as possible.

any help would be appreciated.

FAN use 5V line
12V used only for GDROM and AV connector (for activate RGB mode in your TV)
