Re: How to make 12cm case fan run at full speed?

As long as any fan gets its power from the 12V (yellow wire) part of the molex connector it will run at full speed. Almost all computer fans accept a maximum voltage of 12V.

Unless there is a resistor/potentiometer somewhere in the fan wiring, it shouldn't be running slower than full speed.
