It is an Enhance PS-5150GH 500w black knight psu. http://www.enhanceusa.com/series.php?series_id=4#115 all thats left to do is countersink the bolt holes for mosfet/diode hold downs, solder up the last few joints, and assemble. and then load test. of all the psu's I've had apart, which is lots when ...

"Very nice product, aside from the price. I wonder why they chose 1.8" form factor when surely the big market would be 2.5" laptops..." notebook manufacturers would jump on the reduced form factor in a second, and it also solves a lot of ipod failure issues. Of course this is ignoring prices for a m...

pic is old, radiator is now on its side below coolant level in the bucket, 20 liter bucket. Using a 1200 lph pump between bucket and radiator, and a 300watt 10,000lph heila pump up to main pc that has a swiftech storm, loop is about 20-25 meters total for that pc. another pump in the bucket for htpc...

I disagree. Here's why: So those pics tell something. What? That there was a lot more low frequency noise in the Noctua recording than in the Nexus. But having just listened to both 1ft/12V recordings, in both, I can hear more low freq noise in the latter part of the recording than in the beginning...

the area filled in on the graph to the left, like in the noctua graph, are bass frequencies. it is of importance as lower frequency sound is harder to attenuate then mid frequencies, and can excite cases panels and case cavity resonances, but conversely, mid range sounds are more annoying to humans ...

Hello Ralf,

this is not the shape of the wave form but the frequency response, a plot of amplitude on the vertical scale and frequency on the horizontal scale

Hello Mike, Please take my post as constructive criticism. You wrap up the Noctua with the following: “….The "presence" was noticeable as a change in the background noise when the fan was turned on or off. The change was felt more than heard; it was impossible to put a finger on just what change...

Howdy all, performing a high quality fft on the recording of the nexus fan, file nexus120-1ft, shows blade passing frequency is 132hz, which equates to an rpm of 1131rpm. either rpm measurments are off, or 12volts wasn't measured correctly. the reviews really need to show an fft of the recorded nois...

Howdy guys, I've not seen the silentmaxx psu in real life, but there are a few benefits from such designs. I'm building a HTPC that I want completely silent, I live in the country side where it is that quite if you sit still you can hear the blood in your ears after 10-15 minutes. I have a Antec pha...

I am currently modifying an Enhance ENP-5150GH for water cooling, yes, water cooling the mosfets and diode packs. The enp-5150GH is VERY similar in layout and looks to the ST50EF-Plus The ENP-5150GH uses 60amp diode packs on all three main secondaries, but does not have true split 12v rails, just a ...

I'v wanted to do this for years, and I have seagates

There is a pile of wires in the average atx psu loom to radiate noise, running the psu externally "could" cause trouble. As for fanless psu's, running a phantom 500 outside my case has never been a problem, though with everything watercooled the case never warms up. I'm building a HTPC at the moment...

re norton ghost, I used to be a devoted user until I discovered Acronis True Image

I've an antec phantom 500 with a p4 3ghz northwood with 5 hard disks (4 seagate 15krpm scsi's) and ati 9250 and i've not once had the fan come on, even through summer.

Sami-fin, I Suggest your experience is rather biased. Check out the lite-on forum at cdfreaks.com http://club.cdfreaks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=44 If you use current firmware, or the codeguys 3rd party firmware, and decent quality media and scan your burnt disks with kprobe, you will find lite-on's pr...

Howdy guys, at work we construct media players for cinema use. Basically a computer driving a video projector for pre movie advertising. I have the job of fixing the occasional problem, mostly when the assemblers have stuffed something up. Anyway, we have a lot of them in use. Think thousands. All u...

Pizpump, I have looked at the pumps data (though very limited, the carter website is useless). Assuming their maximium pressure of 6psi means that at 6psi there is zero flow, the pump would work, but looks a little expensive. Max flow, at zero head (meaning no restrictions, no pipe on the outlet of ...

Howdy LLiam, had a few small LAN parties with close friends, but nothing much. Won't be taking this system now, probably best to have it at my place! The flow sensor puts out a pulse for every time the impeller tips pass a hall effects sensor. So the frequency of the pulses is 7hz for a flow of one ...

Thanks for the tip guys, speed fan does work for me.

Great little program.

ooh, the controller in the psu chamber controls the mains to the phantom 500 in case water flow is lost via a mechanical relay.

relay also controls the fans.

here are some more pics the case I built, a cut down 19" rack mount case. Now with mdf panels (raw atm, will finish soon, contemplating covering them with suade leather) and wheels http://users.tpg.com.au/link1853/pc+case.jpg a picture of the solid state relays in my fan and pump control box. Never ...

Howdy guys, I'd like to find some freeware or sanely priced software for a toobar scsi temp reporter. I've tried HDD Temperature SCSI, works great, but 50 USD for a license is a bit steep. Dtemp doesn't work with my scsi drives (but fine with my ide's)I've got two Seagate 15k.3 Scsi's on an adaptec ...

System is alive

Its very quiet, can still hear hard disk seeks, 15k rpm seagates were never going to be easy to quieten.

Under 100% load temps are very low, coolant at 8 degrees c (outside ambient), Gigabytes easy tune reports 12-14 deg c on cpu, before this was over 40 deg c.

Will have pics soon.

ooops, its a 500 Ii have

Specs mention 80k hrs at 25deg c. Does anyone know if that is 25deg c ambient OR 25deg c internal heatsink temp? If its ambient its fine, but if its 25 deg c heatsink temp, derating puts it's life expectancy a lot lower. Mighty fine psu I must say, in my system at 50% load, p4 3.2ghz, 4 15k scsi's a...

three computers and a hifi.

water cooled amplifiers, in all about 1kw of heat


two p4 3ghz and a p4 1.5ghz

at zero static pressure, 500cfm EACH!!!

i'm currently building a custom case, so no blocks are mounted yet.

The system controller is pretty much done, a case this weekend, and i'll have it all together with pics.


Phantom 500 on the way too.

Howdy Interitus,


have you any pics of your lcd's associated hardware? I'd like to see how you went about it. External microprocessor i'm assuming.

Regards,

thats 20m total, so the pump/fans/radiator are 10 meters away from pc
