Thanks for the link!

Seems to me this would the perfect product for reviewing at this site.... As the Fortron/Verax unit this mod is based on (at least the 300 watt version) tested so well and quietly on the recent Tom's Hardware PSU comparison, coming out as his top pick, I may wind up buying this modded version without a review. I have asked Exotic to send me details comparing the 14 and 18db version mods.... there is also a warranty ? with this unit that needs answering.

My only other concern is the marginal +12v rail output at 15A; my upcoming build will have a max draw of 14.95A on that rail - little headroom there, and a potential for overheating the PSU if the mod lowers the max PSU cooling potential of the fan. Other 400+ watt PSUs can have up to 20A on this rail.
