OK.. right now my computer is pretty **** loud. While im not gaming, the temps on it seem pretty normal, and it doesnt seem like its necessary to have the fans going at such a fast speed. (btw I own an alienware aurora 7500). I would really like to tone the noise down a little, and iv gone through the option of getting a watercooling system (which it turns out, is not an option).

Now i hear about programs like "fan controllers" where i can turn down the fans to minimize noise output when not necessary.


Can someone tell me where i coudl download these? Or is it actual hardware that I need to buy.. or possibly does my computer already have a program to control the fans?

And also, if i did turn down my fans, what should i be watching out for; is it possible my computer could overheat and die?
 
a fan controller is a physical piece of hardware tat you use in either a 3.5 external or 5.25 inch bay. i just added once and ti was a smart decision, much quiteter now and temps arent even any higer. just search fan controller on newegg and ull see
