What a fanless system would look like.

http://www.geocities.jp/numano333/index.html

I got a 2500 barton @ 3200 that uses a thermal right si-97, and it uses a 92mm fan (using the 92mm mad dog fan from compusa) that is set at 7V. The max my processor gets at full load is 51C (idle @ 45C) 25.5C room temp. By then, the power supply fan from the antec trio ramps up.

I actually found out it was my soundcard. When I played winamp the noise would go away and when I disabled my audigy 2 zs soundcard the noise stayed away with no need to put load on my cpu.

I think it's coil whine but I'm not sure where from now. I have a unmodded Antec TP-II 480 Blue PSU and a ASUS A7N8X motherboard. Also I use the Sunbeam 5-1/4" Rheobus Kit to undervolt my cpu and case fan. The Scythe quiet drive is suspended as well. Actually, I think it's related to the PSU because...

How can I locate this problem?... After changing out the heatsinks and the psu in my system plus using the Scythe quiet drive, there is a high pitch noise emitting from my case (not the lcd monitor since it's still there when I turn that off). Also I found that when I'm in photoshop and I click and ...

Anyone have experience with the FM series of silverstone? They are made to be undervolted since they have a range of 1800rpm to 3800rpm for the 92mm fan (currently looking for a fan for my si-97a). http://www.silverstonetek.com/products-fm91.htm

Old topic I know... but I was wondering if it's possible to put the Antec switch on another fan?

But it's quiet at 6~7V

seems they ran out at jabtech but they got this

Don't get the BX version

Sweet, I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for that review. Nice 120mm fan roundup btw, I bought 3 of those Global WINs and they are silent in my hand at 7v but I haven't put it in a case yet. Are the 80mms any good? A pitty Global WIN doesn't make a 92mm version.

Looks like they incorporated it on one of their heatsinks and it's pretty cheap too. http://www.arctic-cooling.com/cpu2.php? ... ta=1&disc=

Would the Arctic Fan 9 be compatible with the clips on the si-97a?

It's just 1 degree difference at full load which is what I measure, not idle.

The testing was done on the same system unless I misread it since I was just skimming.

Barely in favor of the si-120 in a case. Was also discussed here http://forums.silentpcreview.com/viewto ... highlight=

Can you give me a sneak-peek on the Scythe 80mm fan versus Nexus? The reason I'm asking is I need to buy a pair of 80mm fans in the near future. and if the Scythe turns out to be better than the Nexus... -Derek Right, these last 2 reviews are way out of mosts people's price range... and the recomme...

Another site showing in favor of the si-120 (in a closed/realistic system) http://www.madshrimps.be/?action=getart ... rticID=406

Jab-tech is like my newegg for quiet computing parts . They have everything I've needed so far, and (as mentioned) their shipping cost is fair. Haven't had an issue with them so far.

nm seems it wasn't forgotten. The recommended heatsink section just got updated .

Hi I just got this psu too and I was wondering has anyone run into any overheating issues when using 2 L1a panaflos? Since the sinks were small I was thinking about using the M version. Also what is a good place to buy these 2 fans from since I've read that the quality of these fans have gone down. ...

I'm thinking about getting the 939Dual-SATA2 too but the only thing that is stopping me is that the power cable is right behind where the cpu+hsf will be. 1st I think that the ultra x-connect cable's are stiff from some people's reviews so it might be dangerous bending the cable back that far. 2nd w...

I have a 200gb PATA 7200.7 that says it was made in singapore but uses the 3.01 firmware and it's data code is 04351. It makes a high pitch whine and I can here it seek when my computer is idle. I power it on the same line as my video card and it is hard mounted. Could the hard drive just be a bad s...

I did a quick search and couldn't find anything on this specific unit. Does anyone have any experience with it? I plan to put in the passive gigabyte 6600gt, 3200 venice, samsung sata HD, and a short dvd burner drive (Lite-On and Sony (any others?)). I'm still deciding on ram.. Also I'd swap the fan...

That looks like the stuff. Too bad I can't read it.

[quote="peterson"]I have successfully glued on a Panaflo 80*15 mm fan. It's quiter and cooler than the stock Zalman fan. I glued it because there was too little material to drill in. I used a heat and vibration resistant glue.[/quote]

link to the exact type of glue please? thanks in advance.

I posted this after 3 days of going over this site... but it's a huge site and I was overwhelmed with the information contained here. Some information wasn't in the recommendation's section like the carving rubber technique that is said to kill the high pitched whine in old hard drives (which I am s...

I'm waiting but not as long as most

Well I don't need a new system in my opinion just yet since what I have now runs quick enough. Plus I'm waiting for a standard issue of windows 64 to come out. Also if I were to get a new system I would get a card with a passive heat sink included (like the 6600gt gigabyte). So actually I'm thinking...

My video card is actually making vibrating noise when ramping up so I have decided to replace the heatsink and fan with an aftermarket one. I'm trying to decide on either get the NV SILENCER 3 or the Zalman VF700-AlCu. I think I'm leaning more towards the zalman because (correct me if I'm wrong) qui...

I doubt the ram sinks are needed but do you have a pic of something similar to that duct your talking about? Oh and also bfg's customer support told me the max Wattage under load is 56-watts. Would this be comparable to a motherboards northbridge? The Zalman ZM50-HP looks promising [url]http://www.d...

Do you think the BFG 5500 OC 128MB could be cooled effectively with the NB47J? The stock heatsink/fan on the GPU looks so flimsy that I was even thinking about just unplugging it. That side mounted fan directed at the video card looks promising as well.
