I'm in the early stages of planning a new build to replace my (very!) old PC.
I'd like to keep the noise level down; one possible part of that might be to go for a higher power PSU with a zero RPM mode,
on the basis that if I aim for something where the normal load is below the level where the fan kicks in, in theory that ought
to give a silent PSU.
Has anyone tried this? does it actually work in practice, or do you just get a delay before things heat up and the fan starts?
