I realized this too late. I ended up frying my psu fan header, and now have a useless enermax fan since It has a unique connector can't plug it into anything. The scyth sflex fan in my enermax modu 82 is now powered directly from my scythe fan controller.

Pigpen, Have you finished your sugo build? Did you end up cutting around the edges of your fan mounts? Did this increase airflow? My 80mm SUSCOOL81 case fans I bought for this build are even louder than the stock fan that came with this case. Over 600 rpm's and the motor starts to whir, So now I nee...

Is enermax modu 82 PSU 4 pin fan compatible with MB header?

My enermax modu 82's fan was too slow for me so I took out the fan thinking I could plug it into my motherboard and make it spin faster. I thought it would plug into my motherboard but I see the jack is smaller than the fan headers on my motherboard. So I spliced the wires on my fan- yellow black an...

I have attached a fan to be flush against the underside of my nt06 heatsink. It sits horizontally right above cpu and pushes air through nt06 cooling fins directly into PSU. My PSU sits flush against top side of nt06. This will help cool my PSU and cpu. My modu 81 PSU is actually being repaired righ...

Aris, Your solution with blow holes is interesting but I won't be able to do this. My enermax+82 PSU is very quiet even with system at full load. My PSU fan speed ranges from 500 rpm's to 900 rpm's. I assumed it was my cpu load that is triggering PSU fan speed difference, not temperature of PSU. Is ...

After putting in my new ram and overclocking it, I put back my old ram that has never been overclocked and it won't even allow sleep. Has the MB been damaged? I'll run mem86 again. How many hours should I let it run? What is "vrm" and what are the "caps" you are referring to

I've replaced my original ram and sleep still won't work anymore. I've tried dvi, hdmi and vga. I'm sure sleep was working before but now it's not. I'm going to try reinstalling windows and if that doesn't work I'll try removing and reinserting c-mos chip. Jimx, Was your sleep mode working originall...

You say PSU as only exhaust is bad, but I thought you might think differently since I added a fan right above my cpu pushing air into my psu keeping my PSU cool. It seems to me if I use rear case fan and or top case fan as exhaust that my MB temps will go up which are already high. Also, wont using ...

Pipen, I noticed without harddrive fan my harddrive temps went over 50c so I bought 3X suscool81 fans that run at 900 rpm's. I put one in my hard drive enclosure, one in top mount, and one on my cpu heatsink pointing up into PSU. I warn you not to put a high speed fan in harddrive cage or top mount ...

p5q-em sleep mode no longer works after I overclocked ram

After putting in my new ballistix 2X2gig 4-4-4-12 2v Ram I noticed PC set it at 5-5-5-18 1.8V so I put it to the rated speed in bios. Now my computer refuses to go into sleep mode. Is this because I changed voltage on Ram? I went into bios; hit f5 to reset everything and even tried different ram but...

Best airflow for my sugo2 case / nt06 heatsink?

I am seeking advise from those familiar with sugo 1/2 series airflow. I have: Sugo series2/ Asus P5Q-EM MB/ nt06-E cpu passive heatsink/ enermax modu 82 PSU. I was advised to have all 3 of my 80mm case fans blow in and have PSU as only exhaust but my PSU doesn't move enough air on it's own so I'm wo...

Hello jhhoffma. Small world. Both members at AVS forrums with my setup actually share my P5Q-EM MB and E8400 cpu. The feller with my heatsink claims the design only makes sense to use chasis fan's as air intake as he claims to be doing with all 3 of his case fans. Since there is no way to monitor PS...

Fried my enermax

Iv'e been scouring forums seeking advice. Only 7 days ago I bought modu 82+ for my case to be used as my cases only exhaust. Only now do I realize I made a poor choice. This PSU would not exceed 900 rpm's even after my cpu was being stress tested. My PSU sits ontop of my cpu passive heatsink. The CP...
