can take out PS Fan?

[Scum333]

listen,

i keep the side panel off my case all the time. i have a very high quality power supply from Zalman 300W High Power. if you look inside it has massive heatsinks in it.

i assume they put a fan in it to cool the case and to provide a little overkill in cooling the PS. But, I take the fan out do you think it will be ok.

my goal is to get rid of the noisy fan on it. the fan they put on is a .24 amp ball bearing which has a whine to it that makes me just cry like a little ittty bitty baby boy.

Remember that by opening up the PSU you void the warranty. Personally, I wouldn't mess with it.

also be carefull messing around inside a power supply, they hold a charge for a long time after being shut down and will zap ya something fierce if ya ain't carefull, been there myself.

NO! do not take out the psu fan,it's there to cool the psu not your case.
I see psu's fail all the time,and it's usually because of the fan going bad.

most high end psu manufacturers put 2 fans in their units,and because they are high end,they already assume that the user has good and ample case cooling.

also,most high end psu's have fan speed controls built-in to the psu,my Enermax and Antec psu's do.(though I keep all mine at full speed )
I gave up on fan noise along time ago,I would rather put up with it in order to have good cooling.

um ok.

I will keep my power supply intact for now.

but izzz will not like it.

you're close,you should come by and hear my pc's sometime!

was just wondering how to make the Antec fans run full speed, something about tying 2 wires together or something, right ??

you mean the thermally controlled antec fans?

if so,yes,cut off the thermistor and tie the ends together.

Why do you have the side panel off? I guess those low quality Intel's run hot! If you have your case fans setup correctly it should run cooler and quieter with the side panel on.
