I read somewhere on here people said theres a new revision with easier to manage cables? Yes, it is. I've got one. It doesn't have the thick shielding on the main cables, instead it has a special ring, where the cables enter the PSU: http://www.maxpoint.com/products/pow_supp/spec_pg/noistakerax2/im...

Almost* no whine here: Epox 8rda+, 2500+, 9800Pro, 1xhdd, 1x dvd writer, 1x 512ddram enermax 470 Noisetaker, Active PFC, ATX 2.0 * i get some sort of whine (it's not like a whine, but a buzz or smthg) only (and ONLY) in one game, Diablo 2, and ONLY when i keep my mouse cursor on the interface of the...

Not anymore with rev. 2.0...

It's because i don't like the sound the fans make, when they spin at a low RPM. They don't make a smooth air sound, as i like...

Has anyone swap fans in this PSU? How hard it is?

Don't know.... Maybe because it says it has a separate rail just for the power hungry video cards?

One more question: My PSU is ATX 2.0, so it comes with a 6-pin 12v power connector for the next pci-e video cards. I want to connect it to a normal 4 pin molex power connector, found on my 9800 pro card. So i need an adaptor, 6 pin to 4 pin. Does this type of adaptor exists? Where can i fin one to b...

The problem nr. 2 is resolved: I've tested the PSU on a Abit AN7 mobo and: 3.3+ (3.27v), 5+ (5.06v) and 12+ (12.08v). Pretty good... So my Epox was mis-reporting the voltages, as you said...

1) I know about the whole "coil whine" thing. What surprized me was that it only had coil whine when it was NOT connected to the mobo.

I have the Enermax NoiseTaker 475 A-PFC v. 2.0 1. If i start the PSU, shorting the green-black wires, so no motherboard or video card is connected to it, the PSU whines. I can hear the whine from 2 feet (~70cm). But, if i connect the whole system (motherboard, video, fans, hdd, etc) to the PSU, it D...

Pls help me: Where can i buy a 120mm Yate Loon fan, in US? The Nexus 120 is too expensive...

Thx!

I've red that a hair dryer would help...

They will spin, because, when you first power up the PSU, for a couple of seconds, the fans will spin at full speed, just to help the fans spin up. To get you an idea of how sensible my ears are, i didn't liked how the Antec TP 430 fans sounded at minimum rpm (when you power up the psu). The fans cl...

Has anyone swaped the Enermax fans with Panaflo Ms? Is it worth it?

I've ordered an Enermax, it will arrive in one week or so...

My question is: Should i buy some Panaflo M1 fans for it or are the default psu fans ok?

Yes, but they are only 80mm Japanaflos. I need the 92mm, M1, and i guess they are China panaflos...

Besides http://www.mnpctech.com/Globe.html, is any other place where i should find 120mm Globe fans?

And where can i find the cheapest Panaflos?

I'm looking for cheap Panaflo, Globe, Nexus, etc. fans, in US, online stores only.

Thank you!

gksam: It's nice to know that is quiter than the Antec 380S, wich is quieter than my TP 430..

Anyone else: Do you think i will get coil noise in my system?

A bit offtopic, but anyone knows when the CNPS7700 Zalmans will be out?

I've checked the voltage, and it's 1.65v. I have Arctic Alumina there, 3 months old... 55C maybe it's liveable, but it's in Idle mode. In load i didn't even tried, i guess it will reach 60C or more. With the fan at 3-4v, offcourse... Anyway, in my case, there are 2 major heat producing things: the p...

Wow, that's a BIG cooler!

I just remembered one thing i forgot to mention: I have a Zalman ZM80C on a TI4200, without a side fan. Maybe this is the cause...

The northbridge cooler hasn't got a fan. It's a low profile (~1.5 cm) pasive heatsink.

I also could use a 92mm nexus fan, at 12v. But i don't know if 27CFM would do the job...

I already have a working pc: Epox 8rda+, Barton 2500+ (no ock), Zalman 7000AlCu (with clip cut out), all in an Antec 3700AMB with great airflow (grills cut out and cablegami). All fans are conected to a Sunbeam Rheobus (0v-12v). The problem is, where i live, in the summer time, in my room are 29C-30...

I've red the review, but they've used a 80 l1a panaflo.
With a Panaflo M1a, 92 mm, it could be another story...
