So if it's not a PC what are you doing?

Hyperrealistic sex robot is the only rational answer I can come up with.

So my water cooler has turned up. Only unknown is the wiring. This has no PC control, I just need 12V run.

The fans run 4 wires each. All grey, no labels.

Is this universal?

Yes its universal, disregard wire colours look at pin locations on the connector.

Well this is working great so far. With the fan and heat-sink the hot side would heat-soak and keep climbing to 60C and beyond.

With the water cooler the hot side is under control, the water pipes and radiator tanks aren't even warm, the cold side heat-sink in open air was sub zero almost straight away. :)

This sex robot is going to be able to cope with heaps of friction-related heat.

Elastomers in those must be blown apart. They're supposed to sit about 3" higher.

I knew a guy who had a pair. In fact the same guy owned all the forks that you should never buy.

The late 90's was a horrendous time for mountainbikes. So much good, but so much more bad.
