I've been looking into a fan replacement on my mdd. I've heard of the
SilenX they've used to replace the ol' delta fans. question one -
anybody know the model number/info and possibly where to buy one?
Question two - what about other alternative fans with higher air flow
output and just as
I got a MDD several months ago, one that had not been given a quiet
PSU. I started looking for new fans right away. I compared the specs
on a lot of fans and I decided the Sinlenx Pro series had the best air
flow to noise ratio. I put 2 in the PSU and a 120mm in the case. My
dual 1 GHz now runs at
I'm looking at this one,

What modifications will it need to hook up to the mdd motherboard? Jeff

On both locations, PSU and case fans, I had to switch polarity of the
SilenX fans to match the wiring on the OEM fans. I used black and red
Sharpies to mark the connector on the OEM fans so that I knew where to
put the red and black wires. Then I used a paper clip to release the
wires from the OEM
ok, so it sounds like i don't need to buy anything else other that the
fan itself. Also, I'd like to replace the psu fans at the same time,
can you give me the info i need to order them all from frozencpu.com
at the same time. Thanks. Jeff

The PSU fans are 60mmx60mmx25mm. Read the xlr8 guide (link in previous
post) before you tackle the PSU, it's a little tricky.

Some people question the bona fides of the SilenX. These guys do a
terrific job, and I had very good luck following their
recommendations:

wonder what the downside of 120mmx25mm verses the stock 120mmx35mm? if
the air output is the same or greater? other than it doesn't fit as
tightly against the heatsinkhmm

You probably would be happy with either fan. According to the
manufacturer's specs the SilenX is a little quieter (14 dBA vs 19.8
dBA) but it moves much more air (72 CFM vs 54 CFM). The OEM Delta case
fan moves 152 CFM (53 dBA on high speed) so you really want to look at
the airflow specs when cho
Ok, got my new SilenX fan today... and the connection is different on
the motherboard verses the fan itself. How to connect it? Jeff PS.
soldering iron is at the ready:-)

well, I found out about the paper clip and changed the polarity.
Once installed, powered up and the new silenx didn't do the job? Temp
of cpu went to 138F in about 10 mins I did do the test without
putting the optical drive cage back in, I don't honestly think that
had anything to
