Silverstone Sugo SG06

running at 12v its very comparable to my Yate Loon D12SL 120mm fans I use in my watercooling system, quick look at the YL specs 23 dB @ 1350rpm.
This new silverstone fan is definitely quieter than the single silverstone FN121 fan I use in my HTPC, which I have to undervolt to around 7volts to run silent, the motor noise is very low on the silverstone fans thats why I chose to use one in my HTPC and undervolt it.

Well my SG05 came with a golf ball fan, at 12v it's quiet, more19DB than 36DB I would know if sounds morethan 24DB and it does not, may they swapped the fans on the later builds.. as I was suprised ot see the fan on their

Well, kudos to Silverstone if they have swapped the fan on the SG05 for a quieter one, this was one of the very few negative review comments. I have two SG05 boxes and both came with the older 36 dBA fans. I wonder if they have done anything with respect to the other negative comment which was that the internal sound and usb cables were a bit short for the 9300 ITX.

Also, if anyone has looked closely at the golf ball fans, are they rebadged Sharkoon SilentEagles?
 
what the most powerful gfx card you can fit in this case? i'm thinking of going to ITX gaming route but unsure about heat issue and size of gfx card
 
Just had a look at a set of high res pictures of the SG06 and realized that the reset button has been shifted to the back of the case. Inconvenient and additional cable clutter inside the case.
 
I removed the reset switch, never used that button in my life.

Where the reset switch used to be mounted I fitted a dc power socket to supply 5 volts to an eSATA external hard drive.
 
4890 apparantly uses less power than the 4870 so I think that's the best you could have.
 
Does the HD4890 definately use less power than the HD4870 even when under full load? I can't imagine that happening for a card that uses the same architecture and is overclocked at stock?
 
The 4890 isnt simply a speed binned 4870, the RV790 core is a completely new GPU. It uses cleaver decoupling circuitry and revised internal power distribution, this is why it draws less power both at idle and under load than the 4870.
