Simple and effective PSU mod
Hey guys, I was recently looking through PSU mods and stumbled upon Bluefront's idea of taking the fan outside the PSU to allow more space for airflow and reduce turbulence noise. I tried it today and I thought I would share my results with you guys. My PSU is the Fortron Sparkle 400W http://www.nci...

core temp should not cause system problems. Many experienced overclockers have used core temp to gauge temps for a long time now. And it could be true that your true temps are what speedfan tells you plus 15C. After all, temps of 25C are near room temperature and your core temps generally should be ...

WOW! Great Thread. Thanks graysky, I have always wanted to see something like this. These results will be very influencial in my future overclocking. Especially because as you said, lower FSB generally uses less voltage--or tighter memory timings! Using my e6700, I liked the 8x multi with 450 FSB. B...

hopefully, someone in the know can reply to this. Unfortunately, I do not completely understand why PSU's can make noise but I myself have a psu that can be buzzy occasionally. Most people say it is dependent on how you load the rails. In order to prevent the noise, you may have to make sure that th...

What will you be using this cooler for by the way? Because I have heard that the Noctua heatsink with a 12cm noctua fan can easily handle an intel core 2 duo overclocked to 3.2ghz. And the noctuas are very very quiet. Tuniq is generally used for higher airflow and for super high overclocks, but as i...

Sorry that I was not able to give you a 100% correct answer ichabod. Because I am using a yateloon fan which does not fit with the fan brackets, I just used some wire to attach my fan. So this is why I was not able to answer your question completely correctly. I apologize. However, the ultra 120 ext...

I have 120mm sleeve and ball bearing fans from yate loon. I would say they both sounded very similiar. However, the ball bearing YL fan that I got turned out to be a lemon because it randomly makes loud bearing noise. I also have a ball bearing YL in my PSU (fortron) and that one can also make some ...

Hey its miahallen!!!!! I have thought about building a wood case myself and I believe that turning your mobo clockwise (so that the mobo I/O is at the bottom) is optimal. In this configuration you will have your video cards in a vertical position and if you decide to use a fan, they will be as close...

awesome thread zoob! I think that 120mm fan over the northbridge is important because it will really help to cool down the ram. Thanks for the pics of the hotrodded X-Fi, looks like good work. The cabling also looks good--good job. Sounds like more overclocking is in the works too and I am excited t...

Yup, this pertains to all mobos. Auto will always have to err on the stable side and over volt. It would be cool if auto would automatically do stability testing to find the lowest stable volts so that we don't have to! On my p5k deluxe, I am testing all voltages at the lowest and it seems to be sta...
