Seasonic S12-430 and pci-express

Hmm

I bought a Seasonic S12-430 a while ago to get my system silent but didnt notice there wasnt a PCI-E connection

I will probably upgrade to a PCI-E GFX card so my question is if I can still use this PSU with an adapter or something?

Thx

Same here m8

Just bought a Samsung 930BF

Everything below 70 in brightness starts the whining noise

50 seems more easy on my eyes

Setting in display driver is not really the same effect, the white will still be bright but the other colors will be darker

Any help appreciated!

bit more info

Running the 6600 GT at stock doesnt change temps, maybe 2°C but only on the GPU temp

Just tested the Zalmans at 12V again and here are the temps:

* MOBO = 29
* CPU = 42
* GPU = 48
* HD = 39

Hi all Exellent review on the Silentium T2 case. I have bought me one of those (T1) and I am very happy with it except for the fact that the PSU fans indeed make a "hum" noise. I would like to know if I can adjust the fans to spin slower, with a tool like fanmate or somthing similar. I'm a musician ...
