Modding an Antec Truepower 430W
I opened my Antec 430W and voided the warranty, there are two Dynaeon fans inside, one 92mm, 3000rpm, 35dba and the other 80mm, 3000rpm, 33dba and 27.5CFM, I am wondering if I can swap in two panaflo L1A's, My system needs very little power, Celeron [email protected], GeForec2, 512Mb RAM, 1 hard drive, CDRW and a few fans. I also applied some superglue to secure a few inductors, which I think is the culprit for the buzzing noise. Any thoughts?

As long as you have good case airflow, I don't see any problem with replacing the old fans. Heck, you're drawing so little power, I'd just stick with a single fan. Cover up the hole left by the 92mm fan and twist the vertical grills on the intake 90 degrees for less airflow restriction and you'll be laughing!
