So if I have a case with an LED switch on it and I plug the fan into my motherboard that is connected to that switch, can I turn off this LED?

No, I have a similar situation. But the connection on this fan doesn't allow it to be that simple. Light is always on. It might have something to do with the components involved so maybe its possible but as far as i can tell for the fan to run the light has to be on also.

I believe you could leave the light off of the fan.... although it is really a pretty light... I love this fan! Pam

Yes, you can completely disconnect the LED, if you really want to.. It's a white plug/socket on the edge of the board. But moving it or covering it [as suggested here] is probably safer/easier.

As said in the previous comments, once it's plugged into the motherboard, you are halfway there. My fan has a 3-position switch at the end of a wire, else, it will be on the case. The speed settings are low, medium and high.

Actually it doesn't have a molex connector (as one person suggested) it draws power through the usb header on your motherboard. The reason for this I assume is because of the way a lot of newer electronic devices are defining the concept of "off." On most newer electronics turnig the off switch on a device does for all intents and purposes turn that device off but the only way that you can be 100% certain that no current is trickling through the system is to disconnect the power cord. For instance if I turn my PC off using the power switch on the front of the case, it does turn the pc off. That is it is not in hibernation or sleep mode it is turned to the position that the maker of the system components in my pc considers to be "off." However if I open my case and look at my motherboard I can find a small green led on my motherboard that is still lit. That led will remain lit until I either turn the power switch on my power supply off or if I disconnect the power cord. For what ever reason as long as that power supply is on there is still a small bit of current running through my motherboard. I really don't know why manufacturers build things this way but I suspect that it has to do with the fact that that small amount of current does basically two things, 1.) It makes your system power up faster when you turn the power switch on, and two powering on a system that has a small amount of current running through it is easier on that system than powering it on from a completely "cold" state. The fact that the power light stays on on the card reader is simply due to the fact that the usb headers are drawing a bit of power from this current that is flowing through the system.

I do not understand the question - do you want to change the fan to operate off a multi-speed switch?

I did remove the motherboard. It appeared like I probably could have replaced the fan without removing it; but o avoid breaking anything and to make my life simpler, I removed the board. But I was also adding cooling paste and servicing the whole cooling system.

No. The LEDs are always on.Only the front two fans are LED, so you could just buy two 120/mm140mm fans to replace them.

If you hold the power test button on the back of the case it will turn on the led and make it into a flash or flash light and to turn it off hold in the button until it turns off

On button yes, but i cant seem to find an off button i just flip the power supply switch. Really ice case though

I think so. I am not in the house with the fan right now, but I think you click off the light on the left side by the temperature. I am not 100% certain so I apologize in advance if that does not work for you.

I haven't gotten my build up yet, but from what I can see, there is an LED for the power on the front of the case. It would be easy to add LED lights though. You can get case fans with them for a few dollars a piece. I recommend corsair case fans.

No. When you unplug and remove the light fixture you also remove the switches and capacitor for the fan.

Control knob for fan to controller of increase and decrease power [watts] for fan of spin, rpm. BUT led light will not turn off n on, only windows is shut down to power off that led lighting will off even turn tower power on and led light will turn on.

No, the back fan on the top of the case does have a white led that gets brighter when you increase the fan speed with the switch on the case. I actually bought an nzxt blue led fan for the side panel of the case. The fan does start to make a little noise after about a month of use in my case.

All independent and or add more than one fan on the controller. Yes you can turn it off

Not the fan, the heatsink. My heatsink did. I took it off, and using my own, but probably not a big difference.
