It's been a bit cold over this side of the country as well; although were I am anything under 15C is considered cold. The LC10 did come with a 92mm. Although in the end I bit the bullet and ordered a Seasonic PSU and Nexus fans from the US. Base prices were OK, but shipping was very expensive. Howev...

Looked at the LC13, but I don't like cases with doors, and didn't need the external bays. It looks very similar to the LC10M internally. I'll be interested to see how your mod works, as when it's summer here (downunder), I'll really find out if I have enough cooling and may have to resort to somethi...

I've just finished a build with a LC10M. I used a Seasonic s12-430. I have the concern that the air-flow in the HTPC cases just isn't good enough for a fanless. I ended up replacing the Silverstone fans with a 92mm Nexus and 2 x SilentX 60mm. I manage the fans using a T-Balancer. This combo works gr...

mCubed T-Power with the P180

Thanks for your reply, We seem to have a lack of the recommended quite PSU's in Australia (aka the Seasonic and Nexus), can't track down any of their products, so maybe the best solution is to down size to a 420W Tagan - unless someone can point me in the direction of another quite PSU easily availa...

Another newcomer looking for comment on a planned system

Hi, I'm planning on building a new HTPC, which lead me to your site a few weeks ago, and which has been a great source of ideas and advice. My juggling act on this has been to find components suitable for a HTPC that are quite and available in Australia, as it seems a lot of the highly recommended c...
