Yes. Both ramp up.Yes, PSU fan goes direct to 100% for several seconds and then slowly calms back down to the default very slow idle speed.Yes, I was surprised to find the "fewer cables" version! But fewer cables may help with my cable management problems. Currently I have this wire-birds-nest problem blocking my power supply exhaust (upper right corner) in this image below which is the current state of my build. That wire-birds-nest problem can't be good!I only have 1-and-1/4" (inch) of space to work with. Having a power supply with fewer wires (new PSU on order) may help. The slightly bigger A09P case (on-order) may help too.Perhaps? → Light duty and/or HTPC duty is not enough of a power draw to trigger an increase for the mild airflow through the power supply. Perhaps again? → If that mild airflow gets blocked, then the power supply heats up enough to trigger that short-duration full-speed fan burst as a remedy for the overheating-when-idle problem.Though, I could be wrong
