OT: Removing fan from 486's power supply?

[Ruatha]

I still say go with a thermal resistor, worked great for me, almost soundless and has been working for years.

*persisiting*


Technical data of Noise Killer

Supply voltage: 12Vdc +/- 20% (available in any PC)

Max. load current: 500 mA (more than enough!)

Standby power: approx. 25 % (saves energy!)

Maximum fan speed: > 97 % of nominal. (for maximum cooling)

Noise reduction: 15 - 20 dB !! (sounds like 75-90% less!).

Ambient temp: 0°C - 50°C. (better than hard disk specs)

Temp. control range: 36°C - 38°C (+/- 2°C). (extra stable when hot!)

Size of module: 26 x 40 x 12 mm. (easy to fit)

Short circuit protection; virtually fool proof (not necessary for you)

Start booster for reliable operation with all types of fans. (safety first)


costs approx $15 (130skr) unless you want to make it yourself wich is much cheaper.
