Sy_Accursed Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Got the fan controller sorted today and I jsut say I am rather stunned! Fan 1 - Top 140mm Exhaust Fan: Running about 21/22 C 50% Fan speedFan 2 - Top Rear Exhaust: Running at 20/21 C 50% fan speedFan 3 - GPU side intake: 19/20 C 40%Fan 4 - Lower (currently empty) harddrive bays: 17/18 C 40%Fan 5: Upper hardrive bays: 18/19 C 40% fan speed. Admittedly it is bloody freezing here, but we have heating on and what not; so all in all I'm pretty pleased with running at about 20C Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sy_Accursed Posted December 31, 2009 Author Share Posted December 31, 2009 You'd think; but I specifically bought low power fans. And the psu in this desktop is lower wattage that I ever had b4, its economical power wise comapred to my old desktop ever with all the fans running at full pelt Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MageUK Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 The PSU wattage is irrelevant. The PSU only draws what it requires, if you need 150W to power your machine it will draw the same regardless of whether you have a 300W PSU or a 1000W PSU.

Sy_Accursed Posted January 1, 2010 Author Share Posted January 1, 2010 It is irrelevant in that context yes; but is completely relevant in that my old desktop had a bigger wattage and pretty much used the entirety of said wattage.
