520HX slow fan?

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

my 520HX's fan is supposed to be spinning this slow? I've been liking this quiet power supply. however, recently, I've noticed that it still spins so slow even if my computer is under full load and system temperture is going up.

Please answer my question.

 

Thanks,

 

JT

Can you tell me what your system specs are? The PSU fan will not speed up until you have about 50% load on the PSU, which would be about 275w.

 

sure,

 

intel E6750@3.4Ghz w/ stock cooling w/ 1.4V

2 x crucial ballisticX memory running @ 500Mhz each w/ 2.2V

ATI 1950pro

SB soundcard

2 x WD 10000rpm raptor 37G @ Raid1

1 x Hitachi 500GB HDD

1 x NEC IDE DVD-burner

2 x case fans

 

thanks,
