tried to undervolt a nexus 120

Here's how I hooked it up. I plugged the three prong connector from the Nexus into a Fanmate 1 and ran the wire from the fanmate and plugged it into MB case fan 2 plug. When I turned the pot on the fanmate it didn't slow down the nexus. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks.

thanks so I take it 1g is sufficient. I like the idea of going with integrated graphics and the Sempron 3300+. What's more important here, processor speed and power, or graphics? I don't see what going 939 buys me since the 6100 igp is available in 754. Is this correct?

low to mid power HTPC

Hello, I have a project idea. I am thinking of basing an HTPC on the nsk2400...a system that I can replicate pretty easily. I am thinking I would like it to be at the minimum power to run windows mce for a good 18 months before an upgrade is needed. I want it be based on silent components. So low to...

ultra, not sure about the air direction. I do know the s12 is based on the Super Tornado PSU. I think its the same basic design, just updated with newer components.

swap a super tornado for nsk2400 psu

Is this something I might think of doing since I already have the Tornado 400w? I notice I would have to mount it upside down, and the wiring as it comes out of the Tornado would be on the other side of the PSU. Probably wouldn't matter. Any thoughts on this? The fan would be blowing right into the ...

Hello, I am going to jump over to the 2400. Not as an htpc but just a regular win xp silent rig. Can anyone suggest a m/b? I just want stability. Don't need the latest bells and whistles. I also have my own AGP card. Thanks very much.

Zalman 7000b and alternatives

Hello, I may be misinterpreting the data
but it seemed to me that the Zalman at 5v
was the equal to the xp-90 as far as quiet
cooling and almost to the level of the xp-120.
And this was with the stock fan. Am I missing
anything here? Do a few degrees make a difference?
