Fortron Zen 400W PSU
It is this product: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817104035 There are a few small scratches on the paint from mounting and unmounting but otherwise it looks like the newegg photos. This was used in a boring office machine for a few years, largely at idle, and adequately cooled (the cas...

With al the quality issues mentioned here concerning Asus boards I have been looking at some Intel boards. I found this Intel DP43TF (P43) board, with the ATX power connector in the right place and no unnecessary crap features. You have no software features like EPU6 or the gigabyte thing, and yes ...

Gee, what a mess. So, to sum up, only the CPU fan can be assuredly controlled in the BIOS? And, a PWM fan in the sys_fan2 slot won't even work unless SpeedFan is used? That is sheer madness. I was really leaning towards a P35 Gigabyte board of some sort due to all the rave reviews. total digression...

well, good luck with that. i have no idea whether it will boot (although i suspect since asus lead the power-on delay charge there's a good chance you'll have the same issues i did on my ds3l), but in retrospect it's clear that the pico is the better solution. at this point the only reason to go wit...

the PW-200-V is not ATX v2 compliant and hence will not boot on many modern desktop boards. it is also a major pita to connect it to a y2515 (especially when you subsequently discover that it will not boot your modern desktop board :/) the price premium is maybe 2x, by the way, but since nothing els...

i've recently found myself with a copy of the WHS based mediasmart (basically a 2x height mediavault with a flexatx psu), and it is not quiet, period. i expect the mediavault is similar. OTOH, it's tiny, and low power and can be shoved pretty much anywhere. i have mine in the cabinet of a tv stand i...

very cool!jeffc wrote:Regarding the soft side panels, that's a major advantage. It means the plastic absorbs vibration better. The metal side panel skins on the inside and outside are much stiffer than the plastic, which traps the vibrations inside the plastic. It's called "constrained layer damping".

mine was a v1.1 as well, btw. sweet deal! although, as a meta-note, i'm not sure why antec continues to make and sell the two models, as the only difference seems to be the front door hinge. note #2: my side panels seem to have a lot of give/flex. i find it hard to believe that they could be defecti...

Fan: Nexus 80mm case fan, externally rear mounted intake Am I right in thinking there is only one (80mm) fan in this whole build? (of course if the HDD is external then it's basically only the CPU to cool, but still I think this rig might be slightly undercooled). That's right. Undervolted I'm gues...

I realize this may not be the greatest or sanest proposal ever, so I'm open to any and all advice/comments. What I've come up with is: Case: Silverstone SG01 (148$) PSU: Cover the rear PSU opening with an 80mm fan mount and mini-box PW-200-V DC/DC (as shown here: http://www.atechfabrication.com/prod...
