I just got a zalman 400a-APF.

Comparing it to the pictures of the silenx they look to be exactly the same PSU with a different fan. Has anyone put the 2 side by side for a compare?

This zalman runs very very cool but too loud for my liking. I'll probably swap the fan for a L1a or papst NGL

They're both, at their core, Fotron power supplies with different fans. They may have different heatsinks as well, but I'm not sure about that, so don't take that as fact.

So, yes, they're very much alike.
