537274 2007-03-31 09:56:00 I have built a little media center PC using a mATX case and lots of left overs from past upgrades. It goes well except the for the annoying PSU noise. It's enough to be a distraction. Can you get fanless or external PSUs (like laptops)? patchonline (8714)
537275 2007-03-31 10:19:00 I think Thermaltake make one but they are quite bulky die to heatsinks CYaBro (73)
537276 2007-03-31 10:25:00 There are fanless PSUs, good ones, too. But they are rather expensive.

The auction I linked to are SilenX power supplies. Seems like they're the only fanless PSUs on trademe these days anyway....

537279 2007-03-31 13:52:00 It seems that they are not actually fanless. Tukapa (62)
537280 2007-03-31 14:24:00 Well, the 460W and 340W are.....if he's built an old media PC comprised of left over parts, I guess it doesn't consume much power, and the 340W should be enough.

And besides, 14db is hardly audible. To me, at least.
