PSU for a Lian li v800

Sparky · 2 Feb 2008 at 13:48

Just put together a new pc using the v800. The space for the psu is quite tight and wondered if anyone had any thoughts on a suitable psu?

According to another website the PSU area is 151 x 87 x 160 (W,H,D). Corsair HX620 is 15cm in depth and rather highly regarded, plus it's modular, any square looking PSU should do really

Are they quiet? This is a new HTPC and need a quiet psu.

Very quiet, their OEM is Seasonic who are highly regarded when it comes to silencing your computer

They are that quiet, that when i shorted the black and green cables to turn it on to test (without it being connected to anything) i thought it wasn't working, i had to physically look at the fan to make sure it was on. Even on full load, i haven't seen the fan spin up any more, or at least not audibly. Fantastic PSU's imo.

If it's an HTPC though, i would assume you dont have a huge power requirement and the HX520w would most likely be enough for you. (will need specs to make sure though...)
