    Supermicro 826TQ-R800UB PDB Compatibility

    Thanks, I've read that the 920P is quite a bit quieter than the 800W power supplies I have now, but not as quiet as the SQ. I've already replaced the case fans with Noctua fans, so I'm just dealing with the PSU now. I did find a reference build on the Supermicro site that shows the PDB I have...

    Supermicro 826TQ-R800UB PDB Compatibility

    I'm looking to purchase a quieter PSU for my SuperMicro 826TQ-R800UB chassis. I've narrowed it to down to the PWS-920P-1R. I'm aware that the PDB units in these cases uses different pin layouts on some chassis. My question is, has anyone used a "PDB-PT825-8824" with a PWS-920P-1R PSU without...

    NorcoRPC-2008 and RL-20 Rail Fit

    Thanks for the advice on the washers -- I'll try that tomorrow. Does the rest of my orientation and screw placement look correct? I wasn't sure about which way the outer rails should sit in the the rack (Back vs Front).

    NorcoRPC-2008 and RL-20 Rail Fit

    I'm having trouble mounting my Norco RPC-2008 and Norco RL-20 rail kit in a Startech 4POST25U rack. After mounting the inner rails on the server, and outer rails on the rack, it appears the server / rail combination is not wide enough for my rack. It just barley doesn't have enough width to stay...

    Intel Xeon E5-2670 Deal and Price Tracking

    I have read the thread, and am fully aware of the thermal management profiles for the fans. I understand the target temperatures are high, but under any kind of load I'm seeing thermal throttling (P1 Therm Ctrl %) kick in, and the fans are already running at full speed, since they are not even...

    Intel Xeon E5-2670 Deal and Price Tracking

    After receiving the Natex S2600CP combo, and mounting it in a Norco RPC-2008 2U Chassis, I'm unfortunately faced with the fact that the 4x 80mm case fans are unable to push the required CFM over the passive heatsinks that are currently mounted on my CPU's. I'm seeing very high (80C+)...
