Re: Acer Aspire 5730Z bypass PWM fan requirement? 5930 too!



Yes, yes, yes!
It worked for me too with Acer Aspire 5930!
Seems that ACER does it on purpose, and just particular genuine fans are the only "immune" ones (but they are expensive).
I've bought a visually identical fan from China (priced under 8$), described as „Original FORCECON DFS551305MC0T CPU Cooling FAN for Acer Aspire 5930 5930G fully test and free shipping ” but it didn't work (see picture - numbers are the only difference).
A bottle cap did its job in this...
