[mythtv-users] Upgraded the power supply in my frontend, much quieter

[Mark J. Small]

My frontend is a microatx desktop style case that was originally an hp vectra 
7.  The only fan is in the power supply, the CPU is a PIII that is passively 
cooled.  The hard drive is turned off after boot, and root is on NFS.

 I had put a Sparkle FSP180-50NI(V) power supply in it, but I wasn't happy 
with the noise factor.  I could hear the fan spinning faster and slower 
whenever I wasn't actively watching TV with sound.  

I picked up a Seasonic Super 250 Plus Versatile, and there is a huge 
difference.  All I can hear now is some 60 Hz buzz, and most of that is 
coming from the TV.  My wife is very happy, especially since she doesn't know 
how much I paid for this puppy....
