I have the TS650 for quite a while now, but lately it has gotten even louder than it had before and it was quite loud before. I just replaced 660 with r9 280x and now it sounds like a fucking vacuum cleaner. I already RMAed it earlier but it came back and they said nothing was wrong with it. I contacted XFX directly and they gave me green light that I can change the fan myself without voiding warranty. From reviews it seems that it has Hong Hua HA1225M12F-Z (12V, 120mm, 2000 RPM Fluid Dynamic Bearing) fan inside. (Maybe it's ADDA AD1212MB-A70GL but seems like those only came in early test samples) I can't seem to find any specifications online, but it seems like its just a very bad design and very high RPM fan, because there isnt that much air flow coming from the exhaust and I have tried taking it outside the case to see if it will run any quieter. Any suggestions on what fan I should put in? It's rather ridiculous that the system is quiet and then comes this stupid fan loud as...

You're gonna have to solder a fan connection in as PSUs don't use 3 or 4-pin connections like motherboards do. Otherwise, any 120MM fan will do but I'd recommend a Noctua P12 :)

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

Lol, still haven't changed the fan :D I can't choose the right one really, the specs of the fan that could be inside (ADDA AD1212MB-A70GL) is 80.5cfm and 2.97 mm H2O pressure. I haven't done a lot of research but I've found a few fans that could go inside:

 

Be Quiet Shadow Wings high rpm -  76cfm, 2.7mm H2O

Be Quiet Shadow Wings mid rpm - 50,5cfm, 1.6mm H2O

CM MasterFan Pro Air Flow - http://www.coolermaster.com/cooling/case-fan/masterfan-pro-120-af/

CM MasterFan Pro Air Balance - http://www.coolermaster.com/cooling/case-fan/masterfan-pro-120-ab/

 

Can't choose whether to take Be quiet or CM fan :D MasterFan has speed controller already built in but then I still cant decide whether to take Air Flow or Air Balance. Argh, I have problems choosing the right stuff for my pc xD
