Re: Fractal Design Define Mini

Thought I'd throw my recently assembled system pics up since there were only a couple on the web when I was researching clearances etc prior to purchase.

Does your Tagan PSU have a clicking noise?

I'm just curious of how many of you that got a Tagan PSU, whitout that often written about clicking noise.

If you want, you can also mention which model you have and where (which country) you bought it.

Ok, that's sounds pretty good to me. :)

I still haven't decided if this is the one for me, or if I should go for a Tagan 480. It's a shame there are so few reviews on the Nexus out there...at least that I could find.

I understand that the Nxus-4090 is indeed very quiet in idle or in moderate loads.
But what about heavy loads, is it still very quiet or does the noise increase terribly?
