  • Dell 5150c not noisy any longer

    My desktop, a Dell Dimension 5150c, purchased about 3-4 years ago, was annoyingly noisy for a while. Last time when I changed the PSU, I thought the annoyance would go away. But it didn’t. The CPU fan, San Ace 80, was the main culprit. At sometimes (which was almost everytime) it used to power the CPU fan so loud, that to listen to music or watch a video, we had to pump up the volume to almost twice than usually should be.
    Today I took up in my mind to replace it, and switched to a Kama-Flex.
    Superbly quiet, about 2500 rpm, and cooling efficiency nothing comparable to the older one.
    Was worth the try!
