How To Get Rid Of Np 5797 Cpu Fan Noise

This is HOW I got rid of SAGER NP 5797 CPU FAN NOISE that was driving me damn crazy ! I also TOOK some picture... at the end of this page you can see them all

I am not going to get into detail ! just give you an idea how to do it. The rest is up to your creativity + imaginations.

STEP 1 :: Call XOTIC technical support department at 1-(800) 741-2219 (9AM - 5PM PST) and ask to speak with Dane ( IF ) you got your laptop from them. They MIGHT place your NEW FAN order even if you got nothing from them It is only $25. Ask them to send you " 1 GPU " fan ! as we want to modify it and replace it with CPU fan ! because it is damn MUCH MUCH quieter fan

STEP 2 :: Remove the CPU fan from your laptop " I am not going to tell you how ! use google or use your creativity.

STEP 3 :: Remove the CPU FAN from its case. I CUT it from the case. We need the case in order to put GPU fan in it !

STEP 4 :: NOW ... Remove the GPU fan from its case. I also cut it from the back. I did not want to touch it. Open the pulley etc.

STEP 5 :: CUT the GPU FAN WINGS in a way that would FIT into the old CPU case. I would guess 2 CM would be enough. Again this part is up to your eyes and imaginations.

STEP 6 :: CUT the GPU FAN WIRES and also CPU FAN wires. We want to connect GPU fan wires to >>> CPU Fan Connector.

STEP 7 :: Cut a plastic to fit into back of OLD noise CPU fan case. Why ? we want to put the new GPU fan in there. We want to glue it.

STEP 8 :: Make few small whols to the plastic. This way fan also suck some air from the back of the CPU case. also Make a very small whole to the plastic. We want to run the GPU wires into it


STEP 9 :: Connect GPU FAN WIRES to " CPU FAN connector " They have different connectors ! GPU is different than CPU. We need to keep CPU connector and connect all the GPU wires to it. HOW ? Yellow to Yellow ... RED TO RED ... and last ... BALACK TO WHITE ! Do not worry you are not gonna hurt your system. REPEAT... BLACK TO WHITE for the last part. Otherwise, it is not gonna spin or work.

STEP 10 :: you can leave this part as it is not a MUST! but I did it anyways because I thought I would get more air flow ... I also modify the TOP METAL case of the CPU FAN.. You have to make it more CURVE in order to SIT on top of the fan case and NOT touching the wings of the fan. I am not going to tell you how. Use your imaginations + creativity

DONE ! !! I run most games... and the cpu heat is FANTASTIC... it is not going more than 50c. So, no worry about overheating AT ALL. I think this even works much better than its previous CPU fan.

BOTH FANS ARE NOW WORKING FINE AND MY LAPTOP IS NOT NOISY ANYMORE. I AM SO SO SO GALAD THIS WORKED WELL.

(( I have to say HUGE HUGE HUGE diference in NOISE )) I am now cofortbale to take my laptop with me to public places. Or even when I play Team Fortress 2 in my bed HEAR what other player are saying ! or not getting any headache. ))

Sorry, my english is not that well.

ATTENTION : this might void your warranty. But, what I did was this, I ordered 2 FANS ( cpu + GPU ) in case something happen to my system and have to send it to them, I replaced the modified one with the NEW cpu fan I have lol this way they do not notice anything. Right ? easy.

 

Hello, Objectivity. Nice letterings you got there, no wait, that must be my creative imagination. Could you post your max temperatures during a CPU stress test?

 

<.< I was under the impression that the cpu fan was so noisy, because it was so small. So how does clipping down the gpu fan to the same size fix this?

 

Hi Soviet,

I have Vista 64 bit and ran Prime95 for Torture Test for almost 30 min...

I have Core Temp soft to check TEMP...

so, NO more than 57c. Average is 56c.

PERHAPS, if you are in a a very HOT ROOM, it might get to even 60c.

I hope this helps :- )

Let me know,
Objectivity

 

Hi Clevoguy,

Listen... The WINGS are smaller RIGHT on CPU fan ! AND ALSO the engine :- ) So, the main reason CPU fan makes damn noise is because of its SMALL engine. GPU fan has a bigger engine and I think is more well made.

I cannot tell you HOW satisfied I am with the new FAN. YOu know, I am musician and have an extremely sensitive ears ! even when the FAN is on full speed is much much much better than that damn noisy CPU fan.

But one thing you folks MUST consider is this ... I did not calculate the whole process mathematically . It was just a thought and feeling and I think turned out to be ok.

Regards,
Objectivity

 

Contrary to your name, Objectivity, a lot of this sounds subjective and vague. There are still many details that you haven't stated yet. What CPU was used during the test? What was the ambient temperature in the room? What was your laptop sitting on during the stress test?

 

Hi Soviet,

I might go to sleep soon.

You are right. Everything I have done needs more explanation. Maybe by your questions, it gets more accurate and finally factual. Right ? lets hope.

Interesting because I was just thinking about the same thing. MY cpu speed ! as it might this setup BE different with different CPU speed.

I have Dual core 2.67 Ghz.
Room Temp... was approximately ( 70 F )
Siting on a FLAT wooden table.

Please ask any other interesting questions as I am sure with these questions... Objectivity would be achieved

Regards,

 

Okay. I'll let you go to sleep for tonight. Tomorow, can you run this test? http://www.overclock.net/attachments/downloads/36840d1165737486-orthos-orthos_exe_20060420.zip

Orthos is based off of Prime95, so it should give similar results. Run it for 20 minutes.

What is your CPU specifically? A P9600? A P8800? And what thermal paste did you use?

 

Hi Soviet,

I will do this then go to sleep :- )

Be back in 30 min .

Regards

 

HI Soviet,

I got same TEMP with ORTHOS program.

NO more than 57c. Average is 56c

My CPU is ( A P9600 )

Thermal I used ( High Density ) Arctic Silver Brand is ( Ceramique )
www.arcticsilver.com

Question I have...

Is it a good one ? does it make a HUGE difference what type you use ?

Good night for now.

 

Those temperatures are about right for a P9600. Looks good to me, Objectivity. Good night.

 

My P9600 never passed 50C...

 

Is that on a flat surface, under load via Orthos Another?

 

Thank you Soviet.

IT seems ok .. regarding this ...

I no longer check this thread. I think everything is just fine for me.

Hope this would help those who have the same laptop and tired of the CPU noise.

BYE BYE .

What temps are good or bad? Are you overheating?

Idle temperatures are varied in most notebooks. The reasoning behind this is due to their different thermal designs and low-level programming for fans.

Danger zone (high) temperatures are pretty standard due to manufactures low-level specifications of usage. Danger temps are set to downclock the component such as the CPU or GPU in order to cool the component down enough to prevent overheating

Here are temperatures for specific components when they enter the danger zone.:

CPU danger temperature is around 75-85C (check the CPU's specifications)
GPU danger temperature is around 90-95C
HDD danger temperature is around 60-65C

Threshold temperatures are also pretty standard once again due to the reasons specified under the danger zone temperatures. These temperatures are the most dangerous to a system, in which permanent hardware damage can be incurred if the user does not remedy the heat issue during which time the user is experiencing temperatures within the danger zone. Systems that have a component that reaches threshold temperatures will usually crash or shutdown when the temperature peaks.

CPU threshold temperature is around 90-100C (and above)
GPU threshold temperature is around 100-105C (and above)
HDD threshold temperature is varied, but above 65C is bad

 

I have an idea. How about making a movie with the laptop running Orthos then 3dmark and posting it on youtube? that way we could tell the difference..

 

Yea, make a movie of the laptop running with FN+1 (Fans on MAX) so we can hear how much noise there is
