Just a little update...i got seasonic x-560....its the new x series with hybrid fan control (same as x-650 reviewed here)....mainly because of price, and that i didn't want heat buildup from fanles psu while i am gaming.... Does anyone have any experience with the new x-560....i read some reviews on...

My father has a grocery store....also a lot of traffic and offcorse a lot of dust.....after a while I did the following.... got passive cooling gpu (some old radeon), passive cooling cpu heatsink....well to be honest....there is a fan on the heat sink....but it stopped spinning because of a dust.......

Oh i forgot....my case is Cosmos 1000 with bottom mounted psu....becouse i want to lover the heat transfered to my gpu (heat rises from the psu to gpu) i want to mount the psu venting holes facing down.....will that be ok?

I came across some money and decided to change my noisy sharkoon rush power M 650w PSU....I read a review here on SPCR on Seasonic SS-400FL and fell in love with it....I found his stronger brother Seasonic SS-460FL for OK price.....so I am asking, do you think will it be enough for my system.... I w...

It looks nice, and the specs seem fine....i would like to try 2 for my top exoust fans... but, as usual they will arrive in Croatia...hm...NEVEEERR.....just like noctua and nexus fans......I tried to buy one of ebay, but no luck yet.... but, i would like official review from SPCR of this fan.....not...

i have xfx 5670 1 gb.....with accelero S1 rev.2 mounted....it has no direct airflow over it....and only 1 intake and 1 exoust on the case spinning at 600 rpm......and it still iddles around 36-38 depending of the room temp...

aaa....i want one....ooo yes.... i want one.....


its so pretty.....its perfect....when will it be available ?

o fuck....


sry....just quick google and first result ....


but i still think 400-500w is his best choice....

I think you shouldnt go below 400w...for now i think you can pass with 300w....but in the future..even with the low end gpu, tv card... 400w is minimum ..... I have: phenom II 1055t (x6) 2 samsung hdd-s (1 tb, 500 gb) 4 gb ram ati 5670 (low end gpu) dvd rw external fan controller by my calculations....

what fans are in that ?....have you tried adjusting their speed ? The case fans are the one that came with the Antec P183 which are their tri-cool fans. They have 3 settings: low, medium, and high. I've made sure that both are set to low. I installed EVGA's Precision software and it gave a readout ...

Thumbs up to coolermaster support To start from the start :-).... When i was testing fan configurations and negative pressure benefits on my coolermaster cosmos 1000 case I made a mistake :-)....used lighter to determine does it sucks air trough bottom dust filter while bottom fan is off, and exous...

what fans are in that ?....have you tried adjusting their speed ?

hmm....about the fans....i used 4 gentle typhoons 1150 rpm hooked up to 2 mbo connectors using Y splitter.... used asus fan xpert ant it was ok....GT are 3 wire fans....and they are very, very quiet.........to be able to control all of them this is what i did.....2 gt-s on cpu fan connector, 2 gt-s ...

i read somewhere that linux drivers sometimes have a problem with load/iddle transitions ..... i had ubuntu on my notebook and somethimes cpu load remained high even when it should be iddle ... i am not an expert on this, i am just telling you what happened to me...

The problem is that i cant find any specifications of my PSU on the internet..... its Sharkoon rush power M 600w...and i dont know operating temperatures of PSU???.....i can put a temperature probe on the psu heatsink, connect the new fan to external fan controller an adjust its speed according to t...

i was thinking of suspending HDD but the thing is.....when you look at the psu and hdd noise....psu noise is 80% off their combined noise.....and i was thinking of swapping the psu fan but here i come to a problem....the fan is 135 mm.... and i cant find reaplacment one.....at least not quiet one...

after some tests, lot of reading and more testing i came to best performance/noise ratio for my cosmos...... http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/3821/feature10.th.jpg with just these 3 fans at 600 rpms, its dead silent (except for psu and hdd noise, but i can silence that only with buying new one)......

its veeeerryyy nice ....but i dont think it will be quiet...

Ill have to wait for next years new year to buy 128 gb ssd .....i to am not fan of used stuff, but new ssd is tooooo expensive for me....

it has rubber thingies to "stop" vibration....

SSD hard disk 128Gb OCZ

i can get this for under 200$ from a friend of a friend ......here in croatia the cheapest 128 gb ssd is 400$ .....the math is simple....price in US dollars = price in EURO + 20-30 % ;.).....that means if something costs 10$ in US it will cost 13€ here....

wwwwoooooowww.....i unplugged samsung 500 gb hdd and... its a miracle.....its 30% quieter.... i didn't think that it would be so much difference.....i guess i am going with my plan....ssd system + wd eco green storage...

In the future (when $$ situation slightly improves) i am planning on getting 128 gb ssd to use for windows 7 system and 1 or 2 1,5tb wd eco greens... Now my question is this.....becouse most of the games are very large now days....how much difference will there be if i run them from 5400 hdd instead...

yeesss... i am not the only one.....i thought that i am going crazy....i also run GT-s and encountered the same problem... and to this day dont know how to fix it ....

+1

yupiiii :-)..... mugen is installed and ready :-).... the installation wasnt hard as i expected......with my roommates help it was over in 15 minutes.... idle temp with fan running at 500 rpm is 33-35 C....and passive the temp is 38-40 C...so ill go passive.... here are some pictures of the process....

After reading your posts i decided on SCYTHE Mugen2 Rev. B SCMG-2100.....i got it and its huuuugeee.... later today i am gonna install it.... i hope successfully... it seems very complicated to install.... but, i hope it will all be worth it.... and yes....for the fan problem....i connected all the ...

i have sentry 2 already .... and it sucks....

And what fan controller should i buy ?..... it has to be without nobs becouse of cosmos 1000 front door...
