Hi nyu3,

Nice mod, I'll like the work on the psu, for the GTS 450 maybe with one 120mm fan@5v on the accellero will fix the problem ?

Hi guys, For my next build my main objective is a very quiet computer, I don't want to use my 3.5 7200tr Hdds suspended in my Solo anymore. I was thinking to use a 2.5" 5400tr hdd in a Scythe quiet drive for the storage an a ssd for the OS. Do you have any experience with this setup, can you suggest...

Maybe you can mod the solo with a separate chamber and a top blowhole:

Removing A Rivet Because pop rivets are made from soft metal, they are very easy to remove with a drill. Take a drill bit very slightly larger than the original rivet hole. 4mm rivet = 5mm drill bit. Place the drill onto the head of the rivet. http://www.evilution.co.uk/info/tools/usage/rivet8.jpg ...

sub

That airflow pattern is to be expected. The case fan pulls air through the lowest impedance source -- closer, w/ less restriction vents end up being primary inatke air sources. I discuss this in every fanless PSU review. Hi mike, so the best place for a good airflow pattern with a x-400 in a case w...

hi,

AmonRaa had one with a p5q pro in his solo, he has to remove the horizontal bar next to the cpu.

I've done it a long time ago on my solo, it's very easy.

Hi netmask254,

Nice setup,

try to boot without your hdd (livecd)

maybe cut the exhaust grid

sub

Hi doveman, I don't own a three hundred but I think You just have to use a stell drill on the rivets to remove them properly witouth damaging anything. And if you want you can do a 5.25" mod with the 3.5" cage, you had just one panel to move and you can suspend your drive in. http://img695.imageshac...

Hi armornone,

Look at the scythe mugen 2 rev.b

Hi AmonRaa, * You can add a Scythe Slip Stream @5v on the gpu to cool it down a lot. * Maybe cut a blowhole on the top of the solo right under the X-400 grill cover for the heat excape by natural convection. And can you please post a picture of your tower, I'll like to see how the HR-2 fits in the s...

Fanless psu: solo with a modded top airvent like on Antec 3480

Regular Psu: Antec p18x

Wow, very impresive build !

You did a great job, it must be very quiet !

sub

Yeah hardware secretscould pull 600 W from the 400w on overload test and it was still presenting extremely high efficiency (88%)

sub

Obviously the higher rated model must have better components to have that rating. The previous poster must be wrong.

400w fanless share most of it's components with x650 model (check on hardware secrets)

sub

Hi,

Yeah they're very expensive in Europe with the dollar/euro conversion (like always $1=1â‚¬

)

Here in Belgium with vat at 21% :

X-400 144 euros
X-460 159 euros
X-650 149 euros
X-750 169 euros

Hi,

I gott them from junk computers, female from fans and male pcb from motherboard.

I love these cards, what I usually do is strap a 92mm Nexus @5V right on the heatsink and you get wonderful temps with almost no noise at all. These are great way for non technical ppl that are normally afraid of disassembling their cards to get great temps and silence together with performance. An...

Hi,

No ssd for now, was too expensive and old computer inside.

but i'll buy one in Q4 when Intel goes to 25nm, bigger and cheaper

sub

Didn't he also say the X-400 could go up to 700W peak with some nice decent airflow going through it? (Silverstone FT02 with AP181 penetrator fans should do nicely.)

Hardware secrets pull 602.2 W from this power supply in overload test

Thanks mike, another great review !

During the load torture test, the seasonic was dead silent, no coil / pitch noise ?

And the warranty on the corsair is 7years / 5 for the seasonic.

Hi,

If you have 2 fans you can plug them in serial to the fan regulator to get 4v

Hi,

If you're not afraid to mod it, you can cut the alu fins near the caloduct (with an heavy scissors)

Hi IDvsEGO,

5830 with an accelero S1 maybe hard to fit in a small case and hard to cool if you don't use a 120mm on it

I like the solo for the heavy steel panel witouth a lot fan holes in it, it's an old design case but it still very popular here, a

lol jacky spotted ! ps it's very easy to change a led

For the ssd, the c300 64go is a better option, only 128â‚¬ at ldlc and a lot faster!

The nexus value 430 has some unit repported here with the fan clicking
