    Hi,
    Not a single computer
    More like servers.. for a shit load of computers but every single unit is 110/ 120v.

    I suppose that is where the op is getting his performance at removing the said fuse gives the unit 240v
    Good for a limited time performance gain sounds like a oc environment if I've ever read about one heck get on the oc board before it craps out

    1. Modern PSU do not have fuses. Nor do their power cables.
    2. The fuse does not affect how cool your system runs. The current going through a fuse or not is the same - it is what your processor needs, no more, no less, and it is the current that determines how hot the processor or components run. You have been sold a bill-of-goods.
    3. I have never heard of a power cord having a fuse built in. If indeed you have such a fantastical beast, by bypassing it, you risk a fire while gaining nothing.
    They do have fuses in the plug in the UK, wouldn't pass safety standards if they didn't.

    OK, but removing the fuse will not make the CPU run cooler.

    Hi,
    Removing the fuse likely wouldn't do anything but give the device less power not more seeing the fuss limits power at that junction point
    Removing the fuss would pretty much disconnect that power source completely
    Unless he replaced that fuss with a solid stick to transfer all power possible through that line now that would be crazy

    I think the OP in post #1 had (incorrectly) deduced that a single strand of fuse wire has a significant resistance that could restrict the available power and thus adversely affect the pc performance.

    Whilst a single strand of wire will have a greater resistance than the same length of thick multistrand mains wire, the difference has no importance - it's orders of magnitude lower than the effective psu impedance. To the mains, the psu looks like a few hundred ohms - the fuse is a few thousanths of an ohm.

    I can still find this 3 pins plug without fuse in my country but it's rare. It not the plug but
    it how you use this plug to avoid trouble. I think can use this plug in my country,
    no want get caught in my country for using this plug. BTW there is this 2 pings plug also does not have any fuse.

    To all,
    i tried this mod on my washing machine, fridge and vacuum cleaner.,
    they all have better performance and run cooler.

    I imagine this will be the OP's next 'tip'
