Mine is by far the quietest thing in my system. I don't think you will be dissappointed.
 
I'm still leaning towards the PC P&C due to the single 12V rail, even if it is more dangerous.

Ideally I'd like the innards of the PC P&C in an enclosure like the Seasonic or Corsair (ie: 120mm on the bottom).

edit: Actually the Corsair HX620 looks interesting. They say:

Keep in mind that if one rail is overloaded, the power supply can draw power from the other rails in order to balance that load. This is done internally and automatically.

This kind of defeates the purpose of multiple rails (safety in the event of a short), but whatever.

Rail distribution here: http://www.houseofhelp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=52911

It's also on sale so I might try one: http://www.canadacomputers.com/index.php?do=ShowProduct&cmd=pd&pid=010882&cid=PS.808

The Corsair is a single 12v rail. According to OW, rather than have it recertified by UL and the time it normally takes to do so, they left the advertising as multiple 12v rails but it's not.

The Corsair and Seasonic units are already both single 12V. Additionally, they will be the same build quality as the Silencer, as Seasonic is the OEM for all three. Essentially, you do get your PC P&C innards with a 120mm fan ;)
