QUOTE(Skylinestar @ Oct 28 2008, 11:00 AM) i just bought a coolermaster 460W PSU. it buzzes like my acbel. Hmm.... the buzzz... Check and see if you had plug in the power connector properly. AFAIK the buzz usually occurs when your power connector not plugged in properly (ie. contact problem, connector plug too loose, connector plug too tight and slightly bigger than socket until cannot fully insert the plug all the way and the contacts inside not fully and properly joined), move or shake the power cable a bit and if experience more buzzing or not... I'm using AcBel too but never experience this "buzzzz"... This post has been edited by lex: Oct 30 2008, 02:29 AM |

I ever use both CM extreme 3xxwatt and 4xxwatt, both having the "buzz" sound..so..no more cm for me I'm using AcBel too but never experience this "buzzzz"... although i dunno whats the performance of other series. Added on October 30, 2008, 4:48 am QUOTE(James_yka @ Oct 29 2008, 07:31 PM) Mayb bcos x2 eat ups more power... anyway...what is the total amp for your psu +12v? and what spec your pc have?Mine also i think a bit risky, seems just enough to power up the whole system... just hope it would be enough... Is there a way to personally calculate the usage ? i did try the Extreme PSU Calculation, but my PSU doesnt seems to be giving enough... So i want to calculate it myself see if its really enough or not... This post has been edited by stanley85: Oct 30 2008, 04:48 AM |

QUOTE(Skylinestar @ Oct 28 2008, 11:00 AM) Is your coolermaster 460W PSU is active PFC type ? The buzz sound is produced by the active PFC circuit due to resonant. This is normal. My HP C8000 Unix server power supply also like that. The C8000 700Watt PSU is made by Delta Electronics.It can be solved... depends... I ever changed the MPP 400V cap to another brand and the buzzing sound stopped. Will post photo later... This post has been edited by kisuke_77: Nov 11 2008, 10:41 PM |
