Fans
Would 8 80mm fans and one 92mm fan be to much of a draw on my power supply? 300W

I already have 2 80mm fans and the 92mm fan (PCI Slot Type), along with the power supply fan, CPU fan, Chipset fan, video card fan, and an extra 50mm fan above the video card, and the noise it currently makes is very tolerable. Even if I have the side panel removed it still is tolerable. It's under my desk, so its not at ear level, and if I were to leave it on at night, I still use another fan that I sleep with that drowns out the computer anyways.

A 250W PS can handle a single 120mm fan drawing like 8W. For 2 120mm fans I use a 400W PS

I've a 350 W PSU and 4 vents connected (1 PAPST, 2 YSTECH & 1 Delta 'Screamer') and I've to tell you that my voltage readings were seriously jumping up and down.
Now, everything turned allright, but I suggest to be careful with the number of fans you plug onto your PSU
