When buying lower-wattage power supplies, I'm always concerned as to whether the power output will be sufficient. Is there a list somewhere of people's working configurations with various power supplies? That would be extremely helpful to people who have not yet tried out the power supplies firsthan...

Ramdisks
Hi, is there a transparent way to mount ramdisks in Windows? I use them to spin down my HD in Linux (my webserver is entirely cached on one, for example) but unfortunately I can't take advantage of similar things in Windows. Specifically, sometimes I put a couple of hours of music onto a ramdisk and...

Mini-ITX external power supplies
Hi, I'm looking at the 55w mini-itx external power supply here: http://www.mini-itx.com/store/default.asp?c=9#p67 Does anyone know of a place in the USA where I can buy this?

Article on silencing a 1.2GHz Athlon

I'd be interested in whether any of you might have any suggestions/comments, and whether SPCR would be interested in linking to the page. It is located at http://meditation.caltech.ed...

300W and P4
Hi, I currently own an Athlon T-Bird underclocked to 733MHz, and it runs fine on a 300w Zalman PSU. My friend is looking to build a P4 1.80A, and he would like to know whether the 300w of a Zalman PSU would be sufficient. The rest of the system would only contain a 7200rpm hard drive, a cd-rw, and a...

They say that the FBL series is just as quiet as the Panaflo FBA series, but can move up to ...

Wow, thanks! Now when you say that the noise level is about the same as the FBA, what does that mean? In particular, how does the noise level of the FBA compare to the noise level of the Zalman PSU at 25C ambient temperature? <br> <br>Also, how do the FBL/FBA perform when put behind a fan grill? Doe...
