I was wondering which of the following 2 i should use:
Enermax 651
Enermax Whisper 465 (with thermal probe)

I already have them. I want to know which is better to use. The 651 is a little of a turn off because it's got some cables along with the 12V...don't know what they're for, but they kind of take up space in that area....The whisper 465 also has gold-plated connectors whereas the other one doesn't. The whisper 465 also has a thermal probe thing to stick inside the case.

I'm thinking the 465 would be better for noise and stuff and has a little less cable clutter (651 can be used on multi-cpu mb's and dual xeon mb...).

I'm running the following components:

2500 mobile @ 2.4-2.5 Ghz @ 1.7-1.8V
Radeon 9800 Pro
1 Enermax 92 adjustable fan - full speed
4 T.T smart fan LED
2 Arctic Cooling Blue LED fans
Abit nf7-s rev 2
2x512 Corsair PC4000 TwinX
Vantec Vortex
36 GB raptor
1 40 Gb Seagate IDe
cd-rw
floppy

I also plan on changing the northbridge and eventually changing the 40 gb seagate to something bigger....Basically, I want to run all my components and have power left over in case i want something else added in (1 more HD, VGA Cooler, and maybe a DVD-rw, northbridge cooling...that's about all).

So which will it be? I have the 651 installed now...getting 11.61-11.8V on the +12 line - depending on the o/c. The +5 line is at 4.95. Would the 465 be the same?

The 465 should do fine if not you can always take the 465 out and put the 651 in.
