Yes it does. Just yesterday I installed a Athlon II x4 620 and a XIGMATEK HDT-S1283 on a mATX board (which is a AM2+ board)

Ah, and I also use the Antec mini p180. The HDT-S1283 fits fine.

Good luck then! Hopefully you'll get the quiet version as I did. And if its not, it shouldn't be too hard to change the fan.

Sorry for the bump, but I really need to know before I buy an LC-04 - which should I get for the quietest PSU, the 240W or the 300W? Well I tried both, the 300 Watt psu originally delivered with my LC11 case and a replacment 240W. The 300W was extremly noisy, unbearable, really. When I tried to rep...

Hi RAFH,
Yeah, this evening I will go and check out my local hardware store.
Could you maybe send me a link to a picture of a rotary saw, so that I know what it looks like?
(I've found a lot with google, but I'm not sure which exactly you mean.)
Thanks!

Ok, now, I've read the sticky. I even found out what a hole saw is :-) ! That seems the easiest, but probably most expensive way to make a hole. There is still something not clear to me, which I couldn't find in the sticky: How would you create the small holes for the screws to hold the fan? Would y...

Tools needed to cut additional/bigger fan hole?

Hi all, I've got the Lian Li PC-6070 case, and I'm quite happy with it. I'm using low speed fans and I've just recently decoupled the HDDs. So it's pretty quiet, at least for my needs (overclocked gaming, developing machine). Since I decoupled the HDDs, the temps have gone up both for the drives and...

This is exactly what I'm looking for my LC11 case, a 1x/16x/PCI/PCI riser card. I couldn't find anything on the web.

Maybe someone here on the forums has any idea if such a riser card exists?

That seems quite hot in my opinion. I have a X2 4200+ overclocked to 2.55GHz / 1.45 volt with CnQ enabled I get idle temps of around 33 C and under full load maybe 52.

I have just recently bought the LC11, which is quite similar to your LC04. I've had the same issues with PSU noise. I did replace the 40mm fan with a 3000 rpm version and I replaced the 80mm fan and put a new one on the outside of the PSU case. Unfortunately, in the process I destroyed the PSU, alth...

I actually already did what you suggested: I put a 80x25mm fan on the outside of the PSU. However, my TV card got quite bent because the PCI slots of my MB are too close to the PSU. The MB is not the best solution for this case, because it has a PCI-E x1 slot and the riser card expects a PCI slot in...

Thanks for your info, I've contacted Silvertek Europe to check out what my options are for replacing the PSU. I think 240Watt should be enough for my system. I've found a picture of the LC04 power supply and from the look I don't think this will fit into the LC11 (which has a slim design).
