Hi All,

Just built a HTPC which is running great but 10 minutes into a film and the fan inside the stock PSU goes into overdrive and is very load.

I've been looking around for a quite SFX PSU and have come across the 'Be Quiet' range starting at around £40 but I then seen mentions of replacing the PSU fan with a 'Noise Blocker' on another forum?

I'm looking for some advice - Is it easy to replace the PSU fan and if so which fan would be best for silents?

Links to products/tutorials would be great.

I'm trying to keep the cost down to a minimum.

Many thanks
Ben

The warranty wont matter as if it busts I wouldn't want it replacing with the same one anyway.

Any other suggestions anoyone?
