check out the reviews at silentpcreview. the seasonic is 80% efficient and an amazing p/s.

do you trust silenX psu and fan? it is really quiet at night when i go to sleep.

I don't think it lives up to its spec but it really quiet from SilenX owners claimed

Get an Antec Trupower / Trucontrol. ... extremely silent (not sure on DBA) but I can go to sleep with pretty much no noise ....

Wait for the Antec Phantom 500. Passive except when under heavy loads. Of course, the release date could be within the next 5 years so...

the seasonic s12 (excluding the 500w and 600w models which use louder fans) is the quietest non-passive psu you'll be able to find with a good cable selection. beats ocz, antec and enermax when it comes to noise per watt, and is more efficient too.

Don't know about the fans, but the PSU's themselves are designed by SilenX and built by Fortron-Source. I trust them, but the marketing claims of 14dB on those fans are rather dubious to me.

Doesn't get any better than Seasonic AFAIK if you want quiet, reliable, and efficient. I really haven't heard a thing negative about them at all.
