Antec solo makes PSU changing difficult.

Antec solo makes PSU changing difficult. I have to remove my Scythe ninja if I want to take the PSU out. Isn't there an easier way? Can't I pull the top off my case or something? Or remove that large strut that blocks the PSU inside? _________________ Antec Solo Case. Asus P5VD2-MX (soon to be Gigab...

Uh.. sorry. To be more clear, I am looking for a product that will give me more 3 pin fans sockets, to connect more fans to.

I'm sure many of you have had this problem before. What was the best product to solve it?

I don’t use the Q6600 as I just had it for testing; I have an E4500 at 2.75GHz. I just mentioned it as an example of what can be achieved.
Umm umm umm. Ok then, after Martin Luther. :wink:

Hmm, I am interested in this model. To anyone running a Silverstone Fanless PSU can you be so good as to share what other components + fans you have?

Anyone know a "silent" PSU that is silent?

I want a PSU that will be so silent I won't end up changing the fan myself. Nevermind, I went back to my 530w Hiper, turns out the fan connector was loose to the header. :) The fact that it has a 3 pin fan header in the PSU is simplistic genius., and the reason why I love my hiper psu. :) If anyone...

Thank you sir.

The PSU started up. The fan was spinning. As were all my other fans. As was the motherboard light (working). I will probably give it a try in a couple of months if the Hiper gives me problems. (I hate dismantling my PC to be honest).

I [didn't] damage my new Seasonic

At least it appears I did. Seasonic 330w "silent" series (which is not silent, by the way). Anyway I opened it up to have a peek inside. Found out the fan was connected with a 2 pin plug. Removed the grill to assist airflow, and screwed it back together. Now when I fitted the PSU into my PC and turn...
