Product Information

I'm new here (though I have a fairly long history in the LinusTechTips community), and I was drawn here because I'm interested in building a small form factor PC for my living room and LAN use.

Overall, you want a power supply such as this one that has improved power density over other options like the general Flex ATX.

The primary APFC capacitor is a 400V/220μF electrolytic capacitor made by Nippon Chemi-Con and is supported by a very sizable coil that takes almost as much volume as the main transformer of the PSU does. Inside the box, the PSU is merely wrapped in a bubble bag, with SilverStone betting that its small proportions and low weight are enough to prevent damage during transport. Interestingly, I have a couple of TFX PSUs out of prebuilts in the drawer as they are intriguing and would work well in the right shape of case, which theer aren't enough of. As a result, SilverStone is one of the very few companies with a true variety of small form factor power and cooling solutions, rather than just a token device or two.Should you experience any problems, the fully modular connectors allow you to quickly disassemble cables, locate issues, and save overall debugging time. meacupla - Friday, November 13, 2020 - link You can add an 80mm fan to the side if you cut a hole into the side of it.

Doing a Velka 3 build and ended up purchasing the FSP 400w 80+ gold PSU they offer with the fan in the back. Fan could be quieter, but still good for a small PSU and temperature sensitive so is hardly audible most of the time.Running it passive diminishes its output rating so perhaps it's triggering overload or overheat protection?

There is only one significantly-sized heatsink inside the PSU, which is used to cool the two transistors that form a typical half-bridge primary inversion stage. Enhance ENP-7660B provides huge power in the Flex ATX form factor yet its efficiency delivers near silent performance up to 80% of its load capacity (480W) and now with an option to upgrade to a Noctua fan.
