I used to have quiet audio as well.

I solved the issue by using AC3 Filter (http://ac3filter.net/project/1/releases) and all I did was open up "AC3Filter Config" menu and changed the "Preset" to "Loud".

Is the 1300RPM model the only version of this fan?

I believe so. Noctua's website only shows a 1300rpm version as well.

Looking to build a HD HTPC very soon and need some recommendations on the system components as I don't have any experience in this field. Things I want it to be capable of: (HD = 1080p) Record HD content Playback HD content Playback MKV (Matroska) HD files Needs a remote that's easy to use Watch HD ...

Guess I'll be waiting for NCIX to stock them..

Already need 3 of them for my rad (Thermochill PA120.3)... but for the price premium, are they going to be quieter and perform better than 3 Scythe Jyuni fans?...

Raptor where did you get your fan from?

Yes it does. It has the standard Alphacool Laing DDC Clear Acrylic Top.

Would you think these fans are better than the S-Flex for radiator use (Thermochill PA series)?

Well it looks like I'm not going to be doing the RMA. Here is the email I got recently: "Our company, Althon Inc., is the representative of Sapphire for the Canadian territories on RMA (Warranty) services. For RMA (Warranty) claim against Sapphire, first of all, please check the warranty provided by...

I don't think it's my monitor. Tried it on a 20" Dell and 20" Viewsonic.

Hereis a video of what happens when I move my mouse around in my desktop[/code]

I have a x1900 GT on a Accelero S1 with a S-Flex 120mm 1200rpm fan. When I reboot the computer, during the Windows XP loading screen I get all these red dots all over the screen. If I go into paint and use the paint bucket to make everything black, red dots would be all over it as well. Even on my d...

Another comparative review. http://www.digit-life.com/articles2/cpu/intel-pentium-e2140-2160.html It seems E2xxx CPUs are really lower powered than BEs. Any idea how they measured power consumption? I did not read the article but I looked at the test bed configuration and power consumption charts. ...

So if I were to put a load on that 5V rail that needed 5A's then my power brick (outputs a max of 3A, 26V) would not be able to handle the load correct?

anyone?

The PicoPSU-60-WI (80W peak) has a input voltage of 6-26V. So what about the current rating? Would a 26V 3.1A (80.6W) power brick have enough power for the 5V rail (6A Max load and 10A Peak load)? I'm not sure how the "wide input" circuit works so if anyone can enlighten me how it does that would be...

I've been wondering... They are quiet but they don't seem to move a lot of air, even on 12V If I put a tissue in front of an intake fan, it can barely hold the tissue there. If I put the tissue in front of an exhaust fan, it can barely push it enough to let the air move... and it doesn't do much be...

Hi My tricool fans that I currently have use a 4-pin large molex power connector. I can`t connect them to the motherboard (P5B Dlx) without using an adapter. I want to buy new fans (NF-S12-1200 from Noctua) and I'd like to know if I would need adapters for those as well, or can they connect directl...

Papst, panaflo, and high quality double ball bearing fans offer the longest life span no matter the orientation. This seems right. What I would like to know and probably many other here is if 150 000 hours MTBF (longlife) fans like Noctua and Scythe S-Flex are "long life and low noise" also when mo...

The voltage and current match so is it safe to assume they are the same fans? Probably. But on the only hand Delta makes so many fans that they could be different. I would assume they're the same. But that's just me. Anyways, to help, you should try the Zalman ZM-MC1. I cant give you a link to the ...

I have 3 Seasonic PSU's (S12-330, 430, and 500) that do not buzz.

I bought a HX520 last month and it made "ticking" noise (it wasn't the fan). Luckily I was able to exchange it and no issues since then.
I also bought a HX620 couple days ago and no buzzing.

I have a network switch with a pair of 40mm fans in there. The fans that sits in there are: Delta 40x40x20mm Model: E U B0405MD DC 5V, 0.24A They are extremely loud and I need something to replace them. The problem is I can't find the specs of the fans online. So I looked on the Delta website and se...

Any idea how the Neoprene Rubber compares to the Polymeric Mastic? I have absolutely no idea what PM is. Never heard of it. Is it a gas, liquid, or solid? :( It's a damping sheet sold at Mcmaster that I found from this link awhile back: http://www.silentpcreview.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=10811%252...

First, the vinyl rubber is hard - not as good for damping as soft rubber. Take a look at page 3328 and 8583K44, which is available in 30A durometer, which is very soft. The adhesive backing is indeed very worthwhile, otherwise you're gonna go thru a fortune in super glue! :wink: I used a lot of thi...

Hi, Thanks for the reply. I've actually managed to suss it out now, and I've found a better way to remove the base off the Zalman fan that does not involve hacking the centre out. I peeled off the sticker that covers the spindle in the centre of the Zalman fan base. I then used a small flat head sc...

Thank you to everyone for your inputs. Seems like widescreen is the way to go. Not sure which lcd to get now though..

Any suggestions? Dell. Viewsonic, Samsung?

Already have an x850xt PE but maybe I should wait for DX10 cards?

Would I be futureproofing myself by going to 16:9 or is 4:3 going to stay for awhile?

I plan on using the LCD for mainly gaming and office applications.

I was thinking about the Viewsonic VX922 if 4:3 will last but not sure about any of the widescreen LCDs..

I don't think it needs a minimum draw on the 12V line to boot the PC if I can already turn the psu on with the paperclip trick with no load but do correct me if I'm wrong.

Does anyone know where I can get the stock plugs and pins for the fan header of a graphics card?


I have a x1900gt with a VF900 and I want to control the fan speed with atitool..

I don't think the XFX Fatality 7600gt fits as the heatsink sticks out too much and will hit the top panel.

Anyone know if the Zalman ZM80D-HP heatsink will fit without modifications?
