Now I have this crazy idea to pilot the switch based on some parameters (i.e. CPU load, GPU load, some named process running). Do you know if that button is also ACPI / BIOS / something driven? Could even be useful.
In my el-cheapo ITEK case I have a manual dial to set the power of a bundle of fans. I don't know if the dial or both fans went legs up though since it's a while they're not working.

It's already supposed to be controlled by heat, which makes the most sense to me, but the trouble is it doesn't seem to work, at least on my unit.
Edit: No you can't control it with software. It's just a standard PSU.

Aw f* em. It's probably due to some EnergyStar requirement anyway, those are stupid squared.

Corsair and some other manufacturers have (very expensive) software controlled PSUs.
I have a Corsair HX1200 in my computer, it has no switch for eco mode but has, what they call, "zero rpm fan" which, I suppose, is basically the same thing.
The software controlled version of my PSU is the Corsair HX1200i (notice the "i" in the end). It is controlled by a software named "iCUE", which seems to be just a driver and a "cute" (read flashy) interface. It only works in Windows and Mac. And they do not seem to update the software (I mean, they update it but seems the new versions do not support previous PSUs).
I bought the version not controlled by software because I only use Linux and I do not like the idea of a, possibly buggy and easily hackable, driver to be able to control such a potentially catastrophic piece of equipment.
So far I had no problem with my PSU but, according to a power meter I have on the outlet, I never went above 500W (of the 1200W the PSU supports).

Either the Environmental Protection Agency or the Department of Defense has dragged me away for the computer I now posses. Send cake.

...I would win more 1st place article of the month competitions. You are a good competitor!
|

I actually try to hold off posting every month because I feel bad for how much I win. Seriously.
I don't want to be *that* person. I think other people's articles deserve a shake. I happen to (I think) have a skill for technical writing and that gives me something of an advantage I think. I'm not sure entirely, but there are plenty of great projects I find mine winning over, and honestly? Sometimes I don't think I deserve it more than the runners up.
So I stay my hand some months.

@chris-maunder How hard would adding a feature to let someone opt out of the monthly competition be?
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Just email sean@codeproject.com and he'll make sure you're banished, in the nicest possible way, that month.

Oh cool. Then I can submit every month if I want without worrying about taking up too much room here.
