The psu shroud has holes

Should I turn it around?

But I put my hand on th back of the PSU, and I can feel pretty much fresh air... The spacing for the PSU to breath is a little less, but It is on top of a table so no reason for it to ramp up, I'm getting worried that It might be dying and I have to replace it

I dont think so, I went from 6 rubish fans to 3 fractal gp 12 so...

Today I changed my PC case to a Fractal Define C, it all went fine, but later tonight I started noticing that my XFX TS 550W PSU fan is spinning faster... I checked every fan, did the cardboard tube thing, it comes from the PSU (CPU fan stopped, case fans stopped, GPU fans stopped, still making the sound,kinda windy faster noise). PSU fan facing down. What should I do?

My 6600k is at 4.4ghz Opinions please

Wrong about what? Could you be more specific? I meant the G2, never used, and never saw the G1, so my statement, yes it was wrong about the G1

As much as I respect your opinion, I can't take you seriously when you say you prefer a Corsair CX to an EVGA G1, I meant the G2 series, that was the one I used, but nevertheless, I find it strange that preference. But it's all good, competition for everyone

I understand your point perfectly, but just based in the simple tier list, you can conclude that xfx and seasonic s12ii are better, being tier 2 vs CX and CXM tier 3. In the end, I always prefeer EVGAs G1 series, and higher end stuff, so its all good. I just dont like corsair being so mainstream and offering (sometimes) bad quality for high price here in my country, being 100% honest.

In my country they are the same price, thats why I choose the TS! Seasonic ones are even cheaper

Now OP will go for the CXM, oh well. I tried Of course it is worth upgrade, its arround the same price. You dont cheap out on PSU There wont be a day when the CX series, being crap, will stop being put on high end builds

I hope you are joking. No where near a CX or CXM is as good as a XFX TS, more less better

Buy at least tier 2... You will make a good pc, dont cheap out on PSU. CX and CXM series are not good. Buy a XFX TS or seasonic. Trust me, you dont want a CX PSU

Dont buy CX... Go for XFX TS series or a Seasonic one. 500-600W will be enough

Is this case (not the windowed version) silent? Or is the p400s more silent?
