Ok, so I'm getting the Sonata, and I want a quiet PSU to match how quiet the case fans will be. I'm thinking somewhere in the 450W range, and with some nice features such as loomed mobo power cable etc. I saw the SilenX luxurae, but that's WAY too expensive. :-/

The Antec truepowers are nice. I have the 430w version, the fans are thermo controlled and are very silent.

The Fortron 530s are suppost be pretty quiet, and if they're anything like my 80mm 350 then they are VERY quiet.

Both 350w and 530w Fortrons are basically silent. The only time they make noise is if the temps in the case get high otherwise I don't hear them. Fortrons are also extremely cheap compared to most brands and have built in voltage pots. :burn:

This sounds like a personal ad...

Seeking GWDM Power supply to do my b*tch work for me :)

530 Fortron, and the 480 W Truepower are my picks.
