LFG. Where did you get the screws from? The ones that came with the stock fan are too tall. Might just have to bring em to Home Depot to find the correct thread.
upgraded to a noctua fan💪🏻 nostr:npub1ql2zzp3g6yndgz05js7wdc4qkr88wkyne5nw2cc7csrtzqs0yeesgwrxya

really? I was reading the noctua fan manual and it said use existing screws if possible, used the ones with stock fan and it's been fine! maybe we got different stock ones though
Yeah that’s possible. I initially purchased the 40x40x10mm ones (looks like the one you have) but my stock fans are 40x40x20mm (a little taller). So I’m returning to 10mm and getting a 20mm tall Noctua. Both are 5V 4-pin. Even though I want the lower profile, I’d rather not deal with the hassle of trying to find a shorter screw.
sounds good to me! good luck and enjoy it bro, the noctua fan is soooooo quiet
