The Seasonic Platinum Fanless 520W Power Supply ships with a warning notice wrapped around the chassis. As this unit is passively cooled it is important to ensure that the warm air can easily escape.
There are also several vents on the side panels to further improve cooling.
One side of the power supply is fully vented with a power switch and connector set to the side.
The other side of the chassis contains all the connectors for the modular cables. At the side of this panel is a venting hole to further help with heat removal.

The upper side of the chassis has some venting holes, however it should be installed with this side facing down. The Seasonic Platinum Fanless 520W can deliver 43A on the +12V output, for 516Watts of the total power.
that is fantastic. what a design
yeah I agree, they nailed it with that one. only thing is, very few people will spend that money on a 520W unit, even if it is amazing. just the way it is.
Wow that really is spectacular
They make a lot of great power supplies, including a load for other companies! I would rather buy from seasonic directly that one of hteir partners.
I prefer the flat cables to the sleeved ones, they t ake up less space, especially in a mini itx case.
on page 6:
“The large fan maintains good temperatures throughout, rising to a 15c above ambient intake threshold at full load”
What large fan?
an invisible fan that doesn’t exist? fixed that!
