THE MOST WANTED: PSU

[Bazikstano]

Mmm.....

Ive actually got a Fortron AX450-PN ATX12V 450W, wich fan is broken....and sometimes dosnt turn on (the fan), and the PSU, gets hot...inside the PC.....thats really bad

how is it compared to the Coolermaster....? or should I fix the fan

Apz...the coolermaster is not as bad as a generic PSU, it isnt going to blow

Fortron makes excellent PSU's. Replace the fan and use that one.

 

[Bazikstano]

Mmm...but is not that easy...(because there are only wires, not connectors)

@Praxis1452: if the coolermaster is bad..what about the ISO 500D or generic products!!!?!!?!

@IKE0069: Coolermaster vs Enermax vs Fortron...(that one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817104954)??

There are aloy of Antec users out there but I surely wouldn`t include Antec is the same breath as being of the quality of Enermax or Coolermaster...sorry...

Google, replacing PSU fan. Open the Fortron, clean it with a paint brush and canned air,
then install a new fan with the same spec, same wattage and ball bearing type fan.

Let see if I can find a similar fan here in Chile, thats the point. xD

But I dont trust on it because it was very cheap, so..

whats better? Coolermaster 600W or fotron 450W?

or Enermax 550W? xD

Enermax 550w is better than Fortron 450w, which is better than coolermaster anything.

No what I am saying is that Antec has issues with caps and still haven`t corrected the problem!!

I agree. Be very cautious when you open the psu, as the capacitors in power supplies retain fatal amounts of energy for hours. Unlplug the cord, then discharge the psu by pressing the PC's power button. Don't touch anything inside the psu, other than the fan and wire. To simplify things, you might be able to just cut the fan wires and splice the wires from the new fan with crimp connectors.

Thanks everybody ive replaced the fan! xD

PC POWER & COOLING IS THE BEST. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.

I have the Enermax 535W in my new graphic workstation. I got it because its a reliable PSU. I trust it with my components, hopefully you will too.
