Rene Thanks for telling me what version of Link4 you're using. I appreciate it. That is a very stout psu. What are planning on using it for? Your pic shows your cpu as a 950 and your gpu is is a HD5800. Surly you don't 750 watts to drive them.haha |

The machine still runs like a Deere :-) and does everything I want and then some, So the extra few dollars I spend maintaining it are well worth it. It has served me well, this is the only hardware problem I have had in 8 years. Rene My last two PSUs were 620W and 650W. (Measured max power on my highest power PC is only 190W.) My PSUs were randomly selected for impulse purchase. One thing I wanted on the last one, was modular cables, but I didn't really find it helped all that much. Theres still a "hot spot" inside the case, where most of the cables cross one another, and they still cross one another. And the main cable on mine, didn't have a 20+4 and only had a 24, and there was a capacitor on the board right next to the 20 pin. So I had to use an adapter cable to seat the connector. So I probably won't bother with a modular on the next one. And my taste in supplies does change with the application. On the old PCs with more than 25A draw on +5V, you can't really use a modern supply. It has to be an older design for those. And my favorite for that application is a Sparkle 450W or so. Which happened to have enough current on the low voltage rails, for the job. Paul |

The last two PSUs in my tower PC have been 500 and 550W, rather overkill now as the machine only has one SSD connected at the moment, but at times it has had up to 8 hard drives connected. Idle usage now is under 40W. The old PSU didn't die but was replaced when it started making noises from the the coils and capacitors in sympathy with the CPU workload, just moving the mouse was enough to generate annoying noises, compiling code was worst, it seems to be a known issue with certain Seasonic PSUs. Don't really see the point in a fully modular PSU as you can't avoid plugging in the ATX 24pin, I would have bought a semi-modular one except it was a two day wait, rather than collect same day, so I have quite a coiled up "trunk" of unused cables. |

Can you switch the PSU off by USB control? If som then connecting PC1 to PC2's PSU and vice-versa would make a nice STONITH setup for a cluster. |

Â*Â* Paul On this Coolermaster 630 ii case the PSU screw mounting holes are offset so that they will only align with PSU fan facing down, and there is a bottom grill and about inch tall feet on it. It is meant to take cool air from under the case and blow it out of the back, no interaction with case airflow. In any case the PSU temp shows 35.5 DEG C with 0 Fan RPMs. on Prime95, So one less fan to make noise, Another good reason for an oversized PSU. You just gotta love it :-) Rene |
