SilentMaxx 500W PSU with water cooling

Wednesday, August 2nd 2006, 9:18pm

Hi, does anyone here own one? Can you please share your experiences?

Also, I see there are a couple of threads in the German forums on this product... could someone who understands German and English please post a summary of user's findings here in English?

Thanks!

Some people say, it works fine without any fan in the case, others say, that you need a case fan, because the watercooling doesn't really transfer enough heat into the water. There were some problems with unsteady voltages, but that must have been bad luck. What is sure is, that this PSU lacks a few molex connectors (it only has five of those). More details on the connectors:

Thanks JaR, you are very helpful!

Have you come across any tests of its efficiency?
