QUITEST, fanned PSU

Tom10167 · 02-February-03, 06:42 PM

The lowest I have seen is <26db, anyone know what the rating is on those Vantec Stealth's?
Or, anyone have any other suggestions, I'm not going fanless because well, if the computer gets too hot a "fan" comes on, taking the less away from "fanless." and they're like $150. Also, I don't really need a ton of power, if that helps.

Lol, quietest and fanned don't really go together.

Another thing you can do is to modify any existing PSU you have. Just buy any really quiet fan (YS Tech, Sunon etc...) and swap it with the fan in the PSU. Probably cheaper too.

quiet and sunon are mutually exclusive terms Skew!
