Review on ๐Ÿ’ก SilverStone SST-NJ450-SXL: Ultimate 100% Fanless Modular SFX-L 450W PSU - Efficient & Silent Power Supply by Jeff Long

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ashamed. for computers and accessories

I managed to get this to work. The manual consists of 5 pages with pictures that don't match my setup and does NOT describe much. I connect this to 2 different ASUS motherboards. One is Sabertooth 990fx (v1) and the other is ASUS M5A78L-M Plus. After trial and error I got Sabertooth to boot, but I still don't understand which wires go where. I connected the ESD cable to the 8 pin connector on the 990FX and then to either of the two 4 pin connectors on the power supply. The 24-pin connector made sense, as did SATA. Where does the 4-pin connector that attaches to the 24-pin cable go? Back to the 4-pin "Sense" on the power supply? It loads whether I do it or not, but I have no idea if I'm doing something wrong. I won't switch to any other motherboard until I figure this one out. Can someone link me a primer? I haven't built a PC since 2010, so I probably missed important changes.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Easy maintainability
