I'm thinking of ordering this tonight, what do you all think of them?
I'm looking for something as silent as it can get without costing too much (Fanless would be too much)
I can find it for £60 at Kustom, any better prices would be appreciated
Thanks
Ben
nobody own one/know what they're like?
im guessing most people need a heftier psu than a 300w - but if quiet is what you want then it should be good. theres a 400w+ passive psu if you wanted total silence though...
Not looking to spend the sort of money they want for fanless ones plus i don't have that much cooling in my pc anyway
There is a 400w version of the psu but i don't need that much
I guess nobody has anything bad to say about them though
crikey, sounds like a good PSU to me :)
normal 200w shuttle silentXs are apprently great
Swafeman - Have you read a review or something to make it sound like a good one?
Would like a link if you have one please!
The fan on it's meant to run at 14dB i think :D

ohh right, should be good tho, the smaller one was :)
This is SilenX - not to be confused with shuttles SilentX PSU.
Personally i dont like SilenX. Itll be good and quiet, but theres better out there *cough*Tagan*cough*
Ok, i know the Tagen is meant to be better and can be had as a 380W but it's going to be noisier
having just installed my tagan last week i can say that they are whisper quiet. i cant hear mine at all. unless you are passivly cooling everything else then i doubt you will hear it under normal conditions. may hear it during intensive tasks but otherwise the thing is almost silent.
