The External fan Control:
There are two external fan switches on the rear of the case near the top. They allow
you to adjust the speed of these two fans without having to open the case.
Note: The minimum voltage to start these fans is 5V. We recommend our users to
set the fan speed to High if you choose to connect the fan to a fan control device
or to the Fan-Only connector found on some Antec power supplies. A fan-controller
regulates the fan speed by varying the voltage to it. The voltage may start as low
as 4.5V to 5V. Connecting a TriCool set on Medium or Low to a fan-control device
