I spent ages tracking down a properly silent PSU for a project that now isn't happening :-(

 

Silverstone EFN-300 ATX PSU (also known as ST30NF); 300w. Very heavy, massive heatsinks, has no fans and designed to run 100% silent. Think this is the model for more info: https://www.silverstonetek.com/legacy.php?area=en&model=st30nf&tno=2

 

PM me any interest?

Any thoughts on price? Looks like it dates back around 10 years. Has it actually been inside a machine for any of its life?

Not sure on price, PM me thoughts/offer?

 

I bought it in a (modern i3) HTPC and don't believe its had a stressful life (didn't expect it to be 10 years old though!).

Not many references to it around, but there is this one:

Of course the main cause of mortality in power supplies is gunk getting dragged in by the fan - which is not applicable in this case.
