Compared to everything in the system I have its very definatly the most quiet. Plus the fans are thermal controlled...you arent gonna hear em.hyperasus said:How does the Powerstream do for noise? My current Fortron PS treats me well but I cant take the noise anymore so that is why I am buying a new power supply.
n24tg said:if i dont care about the adjustable rails, is it really that bad to go with the modstream? i dont like cable management, plus itll be used in a midtower so i dont need super long cables. if the quality is just that much better, i can deal with non moddable.
Capt_Caveman said:If you don't care about adjustable rails and want silence, I'm very happy w/ my Seasonic S12 500. The 120mm fan runs at 950 rpms at load and it's the most efficient psu out there at 80% at load. I know people love their Powerstreams but I believe it's only 63% efficient or wastes 150watts at load. The S12 500 is dual rail though compared to the Powerstream's single rail.
