## Summary description

Gelid CA-RES-01 is a 3-pin fan resistor cable designed to allow reduced fan speed for compatible 3-pin (DC) fans. The cable provides a simple inline resistance solution between fan and power source to lower RPM and noise when full speed is unnecessary. It is intended for PC cooling applications where quieter operation or reduced airflow is desired without changing fan headers or controllers.

## Long description

Gelid CA-RES-01 3-pin fan resistor cable is an inline solution designed to reduce the rotational speed of compatible 3-pin (DC) cooling fans. The cable inserts a fixed resistance between the fan and its power source to lower voltage and RPM, helping to decrease noise levels and provide quieter operation in PC cooling setups where full airflow is not required. It is a simple, cable-mounted option that does not require modifying fan connectors or using a separate controller.
Advantages
This resistor cable provides a straightforward method to reduce fan speed and noise without altering fan hardware. It is compact and easy to install inline between an existing 3-pin fan and the motherboard or power cable. The passive design requires no external power or software configuration, offering consistent, maintenance-free operation. Because it is cable-mounted, it can be moved or removed quickly if different cooling balance is needed.
Suitable for
Reducing noise in desktop PC cases with 3-pin DC fans
Lowering airflow where full cooling performance is unnecessary
Home or office systems that prioritize quieter operation over maximum cooling
Retrofit installations where replacing fans or fan headers is not desired
Key specifications
Connector type: 3-pin fan connector compatible with DC fans
Function: inline fixed resistance to lower fan voltage and speed
Application: PC case, CPU cooler, or other electronics using 3-pin fans
Form factor: cable-mounted resistor for easy inline installation
Passive operation: no external power or control software required
How to use
Install the Gelid resistor cable by disconnecting the fan's 3-pin connector from the motherboard or power source and connecting the fan to the resistor cable's female connector. Then plug the resistor cable's male connector into the original fan header or power lead. Ensure connectors are fully seated to maintain reliable power and signal. After installation, verify fan operation at the reduced speed and confirm system temperatures remain within safe limits for your configuration.
Usage recommendations
Use this resistor cable with compatible 3-pin DC fans only. Monitor system temperatures after installation to ensure adequate cooling. If greater speed control or dynamic fan curves are required, consider a PWM-capable fan or a dedicated fan controller instead of a fixed resistor solution.
