nope, greatly improved my temps

Abit NF7-S with trat's bios, apparently the most accurate temp reading bios for nforce 2 mobo's (as tested by a few ppl with temp probes) I only hit 55 on load with prime toture tests with fans full pelt, will try a test run on quiet, see what happens temps/stability wise. will see if reversing the ...

HELP!! Right, I have a front bezel modded sonata, fresh air duct for my modded SS400W (Panaflo), side duct for my cpu (sp97 + 92mm panaflo), 120mm silenX exhaust, 120mm panaflo 120mm intake, all on vantec fan controller. Now, as I overclock a bit (xp2500+@3200+), my temps can get a little toasty (40...

I have: Sonata (Front bezel mod) 120mm silenx intake & exhaust SP97 + Panaflo 92mm fan controller for these SS 400W modded with Panaflo 80mm + widened intake vents + fresh air duct (top drive bay) Side vent duct for my cpu 160G Seagate 7200.7 HDD Radeon 9800 pro + Arctic Silncer Abit NF7-S with Zalm...

I use the forum alot, loads of knowledgable peeps on there, I admit the 'no linking/mentioning competitors' rule is a bit harsh, but they fund the forum for free, so I guess they can make their own calls. They have no probelms linking to manufactueres websites, or sites that are international that d...

I'm thinking about getting a shuttle to hook up in the living room, but there are a few factors that I need to take into account. I'd like to be able to put the following in it, as I have them lying around anyways: Duron 1.2Ghz 60G HDD 9000 Pro 128MB w/ Zalman heatpipe Also, I have a spare 92mm Sile...

The way I see SilenX's, 92mm and 120mm are fine, i got a couple of both, but the 80mm versions just push too little air, I'd go with panaflo for 80mm

The duct I built will ideally work with abit mobo's of the NF series, as they have the sockets in the same place

the vary slightly from mobo to mobo.

you'll notice that the vercase with the cpu duct actually allows you to move the duct around a little to position it as close as possible to the cpu location.

I have a 92mm 14dba SilenX on my SP97.

2500@3200 1.7volts gives me 40 idle, 48 load

above the hdd is a 120mm duct yeah, with all silenxs on full pelt, you can hear em, still way less than if they were other fans, but my fan controller keeps em in check when i sleep. i set the one on the sp97 to minimum, turn the front and bottom intakes off and put the rear exhaust to minimum. the ...

Here's what I have done with my sonata: http://kr00t0n.artists.mpfspromotions.com/pc1.JPG http://kr00t0n.artists.mpfspromotions.com/duct.JPG http://kr00t0n.artists.mpfspromotions.com/case.JPG fresh air duct using top drive bay to modded SS400 SilenX fans all around side duct to cpu hsf homemade bott...

http://www.aria.co.uk also do nexus noisetakers, cheap too

Right, modded my SS400, nice n quiet now, also opened the intake vents a bit more. My last mod will be having a go at the front bezel of my sonata, ppl report good results in case temps, but how does this affect the noise blocking ability of the 120mm intake? Is it a worthwhile mod? I'll do a search...

Howcome when I sent my A2 back, they wouldnt give me an A3, only tinker with the innards of the A2? (replace the fan controller, but leave the super red fan) Do you have the 120 or 80mm fan? I believe they only changed the fan on the 120mm version. 80mm, was still too noisy so I have replaced with ...

Howcome when I sent my A2 back, they wouldnt give me an A3, only tinker with the innards of the A2? (replace the fan controller, but leave the super red fan)

never mind, just needed to reseat heatsink :oops: http://kr00t0n.artists.mpfspromotions.com/panaflo.JPG http://kr00t0n.artists.mpfspromotions.com/grommets.JPG http://kr00t0n.artists.mpfspromotions.com/vents.JPG I thought the grommets were a nice touch, the thing is well quiet now, hope it doesnt blo...

right, just modded my noisy SS400 A2 with a panaflo. everything seems fine, and when I boot up, the fan spins. however, half a second into boot, my Abit NF7-S starts a siren like alarm and shuts down. I've googled for the meaning and it's apparently overheating (which isnt the case, everything is as...

I unfortuntely bought a SS400 from the states in Feb this year, total plus customs cost me £110, and it was a noisy A2

RMA didnt work so I have to mod, and if that fails, noisetaker here I come (they quite cheap at aria.co.uk)

lol, I am having the worst luck with searches, 2 other forums also didnt seem to work for me right

mucho gracias tho, that exactly what I am looking for, seasonic warranty be damned, I want a quiet PSU!!! (and I can always buy a new one if I bork this )

Is there a thread or article on the specifics of psu fan replacement? I did a search and looked around but couldnt find anything with in depth details. I need to replace the super red in my SS400 revA2, as even tho seasonic reworked the controller, the fan is still noisy. I want to put a 14dba 80mm ...

Cheers for that, found their Ebay store

The thing is tho, the panaflo is rated 25cfm@12V 21dba, and the silenX is 28cfm@12V 14dba.

*sigh*

Decisions, decisions.

Right, so I sent my SS 400W Rev A2 in to seasonic to hoopefully get an RMA, but they said the best the could do is ugrade the fan controller. Great, I dont care, long as it is more quiet. Going to bed last night, I notice a whirring from my machine. It's the blasted Super Red fan in it!! I have a to...

I'm a little worried about the deadspot that a 120mm with have

That said, I doubt this would fit on my NF7-S with a Zalman passive NB in a sonata

Cheers

DTemp says its running at a cool 34 degrees

Cheers :D Dunno what temps the HDD is, is there software to monitor, or will i need a probe? I know the cabling looks messy, but its actually tidier than it looks , there's just the one big one in the middle, and it isn't actually in the way. All the other go behind stuff or under things I dont mind...

I just finished my final mods to my sonata. I had up until today had: 120mm SilenX intake with a 120mm duct between where the HDD's go. 120mm SilenX exhaust at rear. Abit NF7-S with Zalman Passive NB. xp2500nm@3200 with SP97 + 92mm SilenX and side duct to case panel (making the hole was a beeeach). ...

shathal wrote:Just be aware that the "ANTEC" holes kinda need to be filtered too

Aye, I'm planning a way to incorporate that into the duct I'll be making

My SilenX's do me luvvly. Got a 120mm intake for my sonata, with a 120mm duct to the front grill going above my HDD. Got a 120mm exhaust in the normal spot. 92mm on my SP97 with a duct going to my side panel (I cover with a homemade muffler when leaving on overnight) http://kr00t0n.artists.mpfspromo...

Right, just got an emailing back from them.

They have upgraded the fan control circuit and 'cleaned up' the inside a bit.

I was hoping for a brand new A3, but I hope this will suffice
