Hi, finally I found someone that has used a vf1000 with an antec fusion/2400 case !! I have a 8800 GT that I want to silence and I am wondering if this heatsink will fit in the case. I have a pci slot taken also by my sound card (the one on the left side), a free pci slot and then the VGA PCI expres...

Hi everyone, and what do you think of this model ? 8800 GT with low profile (seems to me, correct ?) and 9 blader large vent. Can't find any comment on the net though ... Anyone heard of it ? http://www.gainward.com/product/product_detail.php?products_id=145 The other models with heat pipes will nev...

ok, so I'll get a fanmate to lock it at 5v, this way you think I could overclock it to 3 Ghz ? Maybe the 120 mm Tricool would fit and be as silent with better air flow, what do you say ?

Hi Mike :D simple ... i haven't bought anything yet and I am making the list of purchase according to the final set up of the rig. Maybe I am pushing too much but I wouldn't like to miss any little piece of hardware in my order... :oops: baseline question is : is the Mini Ninja Cooler enough to hand...

Hi again, please, could someone confirm me that I will be able to run @stock speed the E6750 with fanless Mini Ninja in the Fusion case (and 1 120 mm exhaust fan). Then will I be able to iverclock it that way or will I need for instance the second cooler slot on the Fusion case in order to expell th...

thank you for your feedback ! I appreciate, I can't wait to receive mine.

what motherboard did you use by the way ?

thanks m8 !

hum hum hum ... first thank your for your answer ! :wink: I see in this page (middle picture of the SFF21D) : http://www.silentpcreview.com/article695-page5.html#sflex "The S-Flex package includes a Molex to 3-pin adapter with an RPM monitor cable." how would I be able to use this rpm monitor wire ?...

thank you for your answer,

so If I buy 2 Scythe PWM fans (by the way can't find any comment/review of this one...) on the CPU fan header with a Y cable (exists in 4 pin ?), I will be able to regulate both with the same header ?

ok, that I knew but then they are not regulating the speed depending on CPU temperature ??

they just take full thrust of the vents with the full noise ?

actually I need a 4 pin header to have pwm working on a p5k-vm, so I would go for a Scythe Kama PWM 120 mm DFS122512L-PWM... any info ?

Hi everyone, enthousiast about the Scythe 1200 rpm S-Flex, I am disapointed to see that it's 3 pin and my mobo is 4 pin pwm controled. I found this Scythe Kama PWM Fan 120mm - DFS122512L-PWM (not the Kama in the review, another one, cheaper than S-Flex and japanese version) I was wondering if it als...

Hi there,

in fact I couldn't find any PWM fan in the top 3 recommended fans from SPCR !

How people is doing to use them if they have 4 pin headers on their motherboards ??

Here is the extract of the Asus P5K-VM user guide, I can't "translate" it to check if plugging 2 Scythe 120 mm S-Flex SFF21E fans on the CPU fan header will be okay regarding watts and intensity (A) : "The fan connectors support cooling fans of 350 mA ~ 2000 mA (24W Max.) or a total of 1A ~7 A (84 W...

Hi and thank you for your answer. I see in this post the Y cable trick to plug 2 fans on the same fan header, I already use this type of cable on another PC, my question was about the power drawn by the 2 Scythe fans, weither the mobo will hold it or not. What you are saying is that this Scythe fan ...

up !

Nexus has been changed to Scythe 120 mm S-Flex SFF21E by the way.

Hi, I see here that the Scythe S-Flex SFF21E fan is sold with a 3 pin plug and a 4 pin adaptator. http://www.scythe-eu.com/en/products/fans/scythe-s-flexTM-12cm-case-fan.html I also see here that the Asus P5K-VM only have QFan control on 4 pin "PWM" fans. http://www.overclockingwiki.org/forums/showt...

oh ! indeed there was a misunderstanding ? So i'll go for the Corsair VX 450 W then, i guess i won't pass the noise threshold of 300 W and keep it quiet, what do you think ? I'll put an Asus P5K-VM with Mini Ninja and E6750 proc, and an Albatron 8800 GTS 640 Mo, with a Seagate 500 Go Sata II 16 Mo. ...

Hi Mike, (honored to read a post from you ) :oops: My concern was actually more about the air outflow, since the fan will blow the air towards the top of the case, instead of have it go outside of the case. I was wondering if it would be making a hot air "could", above the intern wall, that will be ...

same goes for the Seasonic 120 mm fan ... look at the case picture here : http://www.silentpcreview.com/article591-page4.html and here : (rear side) http://www.silentpcreview.com/article591-page2.html Maybe I could mount the psu a little backward and not pushed until the rear exit panel ? I am reall...

Hi jaganath and thank you very much for your answer. Indeed the Fortron fanless PSU wouldn't have any air flow in an Antec Fusion because of the internal walls, so I guess a quiet PSU is a better choice. I found the Corsair 450 W in the recommend list, very quiet, but the 120 mm can only be mounted ...

come on guys, please !

Hi pud !

thank you for your answer ... but looking at this article, I am not quite sure about that actually, since the 120 mm will be tightly close to the Ninja, and these measurements :

http://www.silentpcreview.com/article761-page5.html

what do you say ? impressive huh ?

Hi, I thought I had found the perfect PSU for my rig, looking at the 400 W Fortron fanless psu ... ... but I am wondering if this case (with intern walls) will be enough ventilated on the PSU part to cool enough the PSU. I thought fanless psu where not an issue and did not need specifical cooling .....

Hi everyone. impressed by the review, this product is coming right at the good moment since I was looking for a compatible heatsink for Fusion case ! I am planning to use a E6750 on an Asus P5K-VM motherboard. Do you think this little Ninja will hold the overclock from 2.66 GHz to 3.4 GHz ? No fan o...

thank you for this info, can a hardware can handle such temps for a long time anyway ? does it mean that the life expectancy of these boards will be shorter, even if the manufacturer is saying good at these temps ... will it last as long as cooler boards ?

thank you

Hum, thank you very very much beefy for that report ! 85 degrees is madness to me, isnt'it ? the card, even at 0 degrees won't stand long at that pace. Or am I wrong regarding beared temps by GPU ? thanks anyone for any comment or help or cooling that board. Aftermarket coolers don't even exist that...

humm ...

The X-Plosion card is managing OpenAL protocol ... right ?

else it might be a problem for it's futurure usability under Vista's future games.

Thank you,

Sebmex

truely interesting comments everyone.

X-Plosion seems to be slower than X-Fi ... since none of these cards is taking CPU load, then why the game would be slower ?

ok, I think I made my mind for the X-Plosion card

Do you think that this MSI motherboard I mentionned earlier (french webpage) with it's mini PCI port aside from the PCI-E will permit me to let free 2 PCI slots ?

thank you for your precious help !

thank you very much for this detailed answer ! What is different between Prelude and X-Plosion appart from EAX 5 compatibility ? You're saying that EAX 5 games won't be as good on an X-Plosion card ? I truely prefer to choose a motherboard for it's inner qualites than for it's sound chipset and make...
