i meant the beams of light. How the Xiggy is a thin curved line, while the yate loon is like a cone. (I needed to be more explicit on my last post) Ok, well, in that case I refer back to my first post also adding that it could very well be that the orange colour of the Xigmateks fan blades combined...

The Xiggy and Yate Loon look different because of the LED type/angling/how far recessed into the housing they are. Not because of the color/transparency of the housing/fan blades? I believe I'm somewhat tired. They look different because of the different colours/transparency of the housing/fan blad...

Hi and Welcome to SPCR . Why does the Xiggy have that effect? Does it have to do with the type of LED used? Is it sunk further intot he fan housing? Or does it just have to do with the transparent black housing? If I spray painted the xiggy housing and blades, would it still have that effect? Type o...

I would suggest a fan swap instead. Blocking the fan could potentially cause other problems.

Not voiding the guarantee would be preferable, I understand that, but I would still not head down the route you've been thinking about.

You could take a look at the Be-Quiet Dark Power Pro series, judge. I'm using the 650W version, a superb unit. It's housed in an Antec P183. I have no experience with the latest offerings from Seasonic and Corsair and I've never used units from Nexus, so I cannot comment on those. let alone make sug...

Atheism is the lack of a belief in some magical higher power, so Satanism is not at all like atheism, since Satan is still a magical construct.

systematic killings in these cases were about removing competing powers, namely organized religion. They were not ideological killings, and often times (eg Stalinist russia) little or no attempt of ethical justification is made.
