I just upgraded from an FSP350 to an FSP550, as I plan to run my 226 watt pelt off it. I got it from newegg, and it didn't come with an EPS-ATX adapter so I had to order one from www.stayonline.com because sparkle wouldn't help me out with an OEM cable or even link me to a distributor, even though they had the actual sparkle model number on their site :(

Anyway, I just can't get past how incredibly quiet it is so far :)
We'll see if it get's noisier when I add the pelt though.

I also ordered an extension cable for that 8 pin 12v connector which I will hack up to power the pelt.

Heyyy thats great man! Great choice on the PSU ;) ! The best I ever had.

I also had to get that converter... it was like 20 bucks together with a 4-pin ATX P4 power plug adaptor. Yes it is very quiet. It does get a bit louder once you give it some powerful load. No worries though it is built to be run at 100% power 24/7 :)

Let us know how everything goes.
