Hi there,

I recently bought an Ahanix D5 case which includes a mATX PSU. The current PSU makes far too much noise in my opinion. I am thinking about replacing it with another.

Can anyone recommend me a mATX PSU that doesn't make too much (or no) noise?

Thanks!

    Nope - I think you are outa-luck.... :(

    I had the same problem as you and ended up modifying the mATX power supply myself. I removed the existing internal 80x20mm fan and covered the fan entry with a cover-plate, fitted a much larger heatsink to the output semiconductors (diodes), fitted 2 x 60mm fans (very quiet ones) to the end of the power supply case (so that the air would blow straight through and across the larger heatsink) and built a little controller that varied the speed of the fans depending on the temperature of the heatsink.

    Now it is cool and very, very quiet....... :D
