"There are better and safer ways to do that. ." (talking about psu silence)
I said:=
"I'd be very interested to know what they are because I wouldn't have gone to all the trouble with my PSU?"
Removing a fan and doing nothing else to the PSU, especially when the system has no other fans is definitely not better or in my mind safer, unless buying new PSU's is your favourite past time..
Fanless PSU's do exist but most, (are rubbish and), do not benefit from more intelligent design or concepts... just PSU's that have had their fans removed and are now rated lower. True fanless "high" wattage units have big sinks, (outside the unit sometimes), and still tend to run hot.
Silence sounds a very simple concept to get, but to make your PC sound exactly the same when its on as it does when it's off, and still keep it near top end performance wise is not easy at all..... Yes you can remove all the fans and have everything running so hot it almost cooks, but to truly solve it with silence takes a lot more work.
Granted I'm obsessed
and I wouldn't expect you or anyone else to follow my religion, however to infer there is no point is simply missing the point
. Effectively cooling a PSU so that it runs silently takes far more than just disconnecting the fan and crossing your fingers!
Oh and don't get me started on this mythical silent fan thing again.... it's a myth trust me
