AT LAST!!! Got enough cash together and some donations for passing my matric. I picked up my new PSU yesterday. Im very happy with it so far. Really quiet and doesnt seem to get too hot
Here's a proper update, Im going to try got on a DJV like shopping trip to the hardware store and get myself some goodies!
Nice shiny new box
All the contents
What a awesome finish! Super shiny, chrome looking black polished look...
Details
And look, now the hippies wont drop my PC out the window, its PFC (whatever that its
and its a green product, like a tree... but acts like a PSU...kind of) Sorry, serious lack of sleep!
My old "setup" PSU out, opened and wires everywhere
The state of my old Codegen 480W PSU
Then I ripped its guts out. Probably gonna keep it as a test PSU, just cant close it. Doesnt work then
This is the best thing about this PSU, you only have to plug the cables in that you want. In my case: 2x SATA & 5x 4-pin power connectors. The 24-pin and 4-pin connectors dont plug in because, obviously, every PC needs those. Not going to be using the 2x PCI-e connectors....yet
All plugged in and ready to go
Installed :bigups:
Dont know if you can see so well in the pic, but theres a LED at the back of the PSU telling you whether its on or off
Now that the PSU was installed and going, I could play around with a few more things. Installed a 80mm TriCool in the front, to help with HDD cooling
And another 80mm TriCool at the back as one of the exhaust fans. The other one will be the Red 120mm fan thats going on the roof
For the first time in a while my case is closed up and looking normal again
Got to show off the light effects
More updates coming soon, hope you guys enjoyed this one
