Removing case fans
recently replaced my 2 80mm case fans with quieter ones. these connect up to the power via the 4 pin power connectors.
i want to remove my old case fans, but i'm concerned about doing so. they're both wired up to a 4 pin power connector, but the power to the CPU is sharing the same connector. would it be safe just to pull these case fan wires out of this connector ? thanks in advance for any advice. |

It is ok to remove the fans, it will not effect the cup.

If those are like all the connectors I've ever seen, they are passthrough connectors. You can disconnect them and just plug what's left back into a main power feed.
