Do what I plan on doing, use a PC power supply (PSU). There are all sorts of tutorials on the web on testing/cheating out PSU's. If I recall and don't quote me you cheat the green and black plugs on the 24 pin connector to start the PSU. Google it you will fin what you need.

But in mean time I did for you (REP to me!) :hump: http://www.metacafe.com/watch/729606/how_to_test_your_computers_power_supply_psu/

You can find inexpensive PSU's on tigerdirect.com or newegg.com. I got lucky I bought a new PC case that came with a PSU that I didn't need.

Good luck.

So... Dude when it comes to fans volts basically means speed... so if you run a 24 volt fan @ 12 volts it will be running at half speed=very quiet. So giver man and good luck:)
