Latest Vantec Stealth 92mm fan

A friend of me told me that the vantec stealth (92mm) is as silent as the papst 92mm (34 and something it thought) or even more silent? Now I wonder if this is true? I thought that the panaflo was the best and then papst? But i never heard of vantec as really silent... I know its not in the recommen...

yeah but it'll get the temps from the BIOS, and if the BIOS is wrong it will still give the wrong temps, so the only thing that could help is flashing the BIOS to a newer one if you're sure that is the problem. Or you could try to find out how big the gap is in the temperature rang, then you could u...

Zalman Reserator1

It's a reservoir called the reserator1. It's a 3-in-1 solution with reservoir, radiator and pump combined. There's no ...

Swiftech MCX462-V Heatsink

More info over here

I dont know if it is the same but I know its not a reliable (sp?) source.
But on the other hand, they must have got some sort of information about that somewhere?? Something must have given them the idea to write that :)

The new nv38 core from NVidia

Further, said the source, the fan is quiet and beats the ATI XT offering by 30dbs or so This is from an article on the Inquirer http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=11829 Should we believe what they say? BTW: do they it'll be 30db more silent then the ATI XT or will it run at 30db?? :?: GreetZ KhaN

Maxtor 6l060j3 / 6y060l0

Hi,

I'm wondering if any of these harddisks supports AAM. Because they are making a lot of noise (just the noise when they run, not seek noise)

Hope you guys, the specialists at silencing ;), can help me

Well, that 1C difference is probably smaller than the accuracy of their thermal probes, wherever they're mounted (since the review doesn't say) so I wouldn't go so far as to say its better. But if the temp is not correct when using the slk900, the temp will still be uncorrect when testing the 947, ...
