Fanless PSU Torture Test Roundup

Post by FlyingPenguin »

I didn't even know they made fanless PSUs. Looks like the Seasonic X-400 is the best - it survived the hot box with flying colors. Need to consider this next time I need to put together a quiet PC:

You know, now that I have money, I might like to get one of them Zallman heatsink cases, but sadly they don't make them any more.

I have a XG Magnum PSMG-500 quasi fanless (has a small internal fan, but it's never had to turn on for me) PSU in my HTPC. Works like a champ & is a piece of art. Shame they stopped making it.
