Quiet PSU - which one
Im looking for a PSU to power somthing along the lines of
Foxconn NF48MA-KS uATX S939
AMD Athlon 64 3000 S939 Venice
1Gb (2x512Mb) Corsair, DDR400
120Gb Maxtor Plus 10 (7200rpm,8MB) SATA
128mb XFXGeForce6600std PCI-E DualDVI *Passive H/S*
- And a DVD-RW, FDD, Case/cpu fan.
I have a Nexus NX3000, which im very happy with (its better than the psu in my sonata)
- But they dont seam to do it anymore, and was looking for an alternative?

It wouldn't be a Recommended List if it didn't recommend something, would it?dhutch wrote:well, i looked at the recomened list, but there doest seem to a PSU list?
Here.
Oh, and you'll have to scroll down a bit to see the list.
Re: Quiet PSU - which one
If you're happy with the NX3000 and don't need anything more up-to-date, Kustom PCs still have some, and they're only 27 quid inc VAT which is something of a bargain.dhutch wrote: I have a Nexus NX3000, which im very happy with (its better than the psu in my sonata)

The NX3000 is only ATX v1.3 of course, which may or may not be a problem for you...

Which means it hasnt got any Sata power points? (it doesnt)nick705 wrote:The NX3000 is only ATX v1.3 of course, which may or may not be a problem for you...

Fanless would great, but other people have said there very unreliable and tend to overheat and blow?mrochester wrote:I'd recommend a fanless PSU for that setup - either the 300watt Silverstone or the Antec Phantom 350.
- have you run a simular system off a Fanless psu, did you have and problems with it, how long have you had it, how long is it on, etc!

Re: Quiet PSU - which one
Somewhere along the line Nexus made a minor revision to the NX-3000. The newer ones do have SATA connectors (see here). You could mail KustomPCs and ask them which revision they have. Or buy from Silent PC ("only" 52.50 euros)dhutch wrote:Which means it hasnt got any Sata power points?

Still I think a more efficient PSU from the recommended list might be a better choice.
