I am modding an old harddisc recorder with great converters but too much fan noise. It was build to replace 2" tape machines which where in their own rooms anyway, so I guess fan noise was less of an issue back then. Replacing the 80 mm PSU fan The PSU is a non-standard design with 18 volt rails for...

Hi :-) I've purchased a vintage harddisc recorder, and I would like to make it sound less like a jet taking off. The device was meant to replace 2" tape machines which where in their own room anyway.

It has a very strong whining/fuzzing/sizzling noise which is easily audible several meters away. The PSU is in a biiiig tower with the sid...

Ok, any experience with RAM's power use is welcome

Hi :-) I am about to build a new fanless PC with a small 80 Watt PSU (rated at only 60 Watt without forced air flow) in an HD-Plex s5 case. The motherboard will be the Asrock z77e-itx, and the CPU will be the i5-3570k. I will not install a graphics card but instead use the PCIe slot for a card for m...
