All black SOLO anyone? Yes please :) I'm quite pleased w/ my solo, matches my tv which is silver/black. What I'd really like to see is a solo on it's side, htpc cases are too small, and I'd like the 5.25 bay to sit horizontal w/ the case on it's side. I'd also like a 120mm or 140mm in front of the ...

First glance I expected single rail 58amps. It 4 rails? Too many things I don't like about this psu in the review. I have liked the earlier decathlons and will probably keep them high on my list next time I am purchasing a psu, but this one doesn't seem ready for prime time. The DA700 is indeed con...

high rpm for fan controller?
New solo build. For plenum pressuring it has been recommeded 2 x 92 might work best, My main concern is silence but another concern is cost, the high rpm is only $5 from the egg I'm going to put one 100mm in the front of my solo w/ a fan controller. Would it be best to go w/ a high rpm fan so there ...

First off, its skt A, there is no real aftermarket CPU coolers worth a darn for them. They run hot and the tiny heatsinks require tiny high spinning fans to keep cool. The case looks cheap and made of thin metal. The PSU looks almost as bad. Don't sink too much work into it. You'll be disappointed ...

We've got a very noisy bathroom fan... Isn't the point of a bathroom fan to be noisy? :wink: Also, would you run your ventilation system continuously? Otherwise the computer would have to be designed to operate under different cooling conditions. Well I think if this was a dedicated a/c system for ...

I've read the product manual for a high end video projector that required a cooling duct connection. That was designed to be run through the ceiling, but I'm sure you could do something similar if you're enthusiastic/rich enough. :P I considered it, not that I have the time or money mind you. But w...

If I were doing this, I would say cut out the bottom of the cabinet where the case will sit, leave some supports and use some mesh, also cut out some holes in the back, directly behind the exhaust as well as at the back of the bottom to allow for some intake flow. Use a hole saw for a clean look, bu...

Great results!
I'm glad I found this site, I didn't realize how loud my hairdryer of a desktop really was! When Modding my case last year, I had 4 80mm panaflos 2 intake 2 exhaust, an 80mm on the cpu-hs. 120mm blowhole, 120 side intake over the cpu-hs and 120mm in the s12-330 (seasonic psu). That's alot of fans ev...

Re: 7v vs speedfan
...Any ways I'll get to the point, I haven't been able to get speed fan to reduce any of the speeds, does the mobo have to support it?.. Yes, the motherboard must support PWM on each fan header you want to control speed for. Most should have it at least for the CPU fan. is that something I have to ...

7v vs speedfan
I am going to be removing all of my 80mm fans from my case and will only be using 120's in an effort to silence this beast. I have a 120 in the side window directly over the hs ( I cut it there). 120 in the psu, 120 aft of the hdds and blowing on the agp( I removed the 40mm fan already) I also have ...
