My only gripe but I could almost fry eggs on this thing. The Enermax 431 I took back never ran this hot.. okay I imagine its the lame fan speeds of the PSU. I've notice they run a good 1000rpms slower than the Enermax. Ive never seen the fan go over 1825rpm where the Enermax would go as high as 2800rpm. Other than that, the rails are a lot more stable.

Well, how has that affected your Case and CPU temps out of curiosity?

Put in bigger and faster fans if it bothers you that much.

heh was just a comment. Just wondered if everyone else's ran so hot. Temps have gone up 3-4 degrees C but considering everyone in this building is running 1-2 a/c per unit in the heat we're having I'm more impressed with the voltages... much more stable than the Enermax. I just wish Antec had made their thermal control of the fans on the psu more agressive.
