By looking at the design of the Orochi you can see it was built to be used with a fan. Well, not really actually :| Huge mass + large fin spacing = designed for fanless use/extremely low airflow conditions, just like this enormous Silentmaxx. :wink: I don't know how the fin spacing compares between...

About $1,100

The U.S. distributor is http://www.budeso.com/ according to the silentmaxx homepage.

I would actually write them an e-mail ([email protected]). I guess you can order directly from them too.

No, i haven't heard anything from my PSU so far. However, if that should happen i would probably get rid of it and use a PicoPSU or something similar since the system doesn't need much power...

Yup, see above (Corsair Force Series F120 SSD MLC). It is located just under the mainboard in a "Kingston SSD DriveCarrier".

I like it. How large is the TwinBlock compared to, say, two Ninjas? Your CPU temperatures are surprising - that must be a power-hungry CPU, but your heatsink can handle it. My fanless, caseless systems has a Ninja on the CPU (undervolted X2), and never gets above 40°C. If I could, I would put equal...

BTW: The hard disk is an SSD of course (Corsair Force Series F120 SSD MLC).

Case + no fans = trouble

You just have to be a bit careful and place it accordingly.

HUGE ?

Well, if you don't wanna worry about the temps in a completely fanless system...

Hi guys! This is my first post here and I thought you might be interested in the project I have just finished. My previous PC was completely fanless and water-cooled. So far so good, but since I don’t need a gaming PC I wanted to build something really puristic without all the annoying water cooling...
