Hello SilentPC I have not been getting any emails lately, is there a problem with my account? Best regards John Paterson [Non-text portions of this message...
OK Rusty I have had some trouble with my name on a Netsky infected machine, so I was worried that I had been blacklisted or something. I am glad that all is...
I just purchased a supposedly quiet PC solution form my local shop. I was hoping for a relatively satisfying solution that did not involve a lot of research...
The bigger heatsink will make a great difference. Don't bother replacing the Sonata PSU fan unless it really bothers you. It's temp controlled - if you...
... I do not think SK-6 is particulary bad choice. I have used two before and I've been pretty happy with its result. You may want to try a little better...
... I agree, I have a Mobile Athlon 2500+/133FSB 1.45W in the mail. Planning on running it on a DFI LanParty Ultra 400 Rev.B or C (NForce2). CPU +NB + 9800XT...
Well the timing of this question about Panaflo fans is interesting because I just discovered that the 80mm FBA08A12L one on my Alpha 8045 is dead. The thing is...
... That's kind of strange, because Panaflos are highly regarded for their durability, and have been used in industrial applications for years. In fact, I...
... Replying to my own message here: It looks like there's some talk in the SPCR forums about spotty quality on Panaflos made in China. What a shame. ...

Damn, sorry about the blank messages; silly browser back buttons. The general content of the message was that I don't think anyone's mentioned general airflow...
This almost sounds like the heatsink isn't mounted properly on the CPU. My friend had the same problem. I run a 1700 and an 1800 with L1A's on AOpen mboards...
... toilet ... The Sonata comes with a big 120mm fan at the back. The voltage is modified by default, to 5V I think. There are no air holes in the front, but...
The Sonata was thoroughly reviewed at SPCR ages ago... and there are several extremely detailed informative threads about them in the Cases Forum at SPCR. ...

Hey all, Noiseblocker fans seem to have nice specs and pricing: Case FAN (120 x 25) Noiseblocker SX1 17dba 15 euro Case FAN (92 x 25) Noiseblocker SE2 22dba...
Everyone should check out Mike Chin's article in PC World Magazine about two very different approaches to quiet systems. I won't say anything about it because...

Excellent Mike. I am seriously tempted by both of them different ways. Pity I have a finite budget and no access to these computers. John. ... From: Silent...
I have a couple of 80mm Noiseblocker S1's and a 92mm SE2 - the noise they do make seems to be in the lower mid-range and is a bit clicky. I don't think I'll be...
I have a PC that I would like quiet. It has a 20GB 5400rpm Maxtor for the OS and a 120GB 7200rpm WD for data. The Maxtor seems quiet but the WD is just awful!...
