i'm in need of a new power supply :
my current Coolermaster extreme 650w is a cheapo power supply i bought with my computer, and the fan is as loud as my vacuum cleaner. unless i turn my Z5400's to 3/4 max volume, the power supply fan is still heard over my music! it's ridiculous.
so, i've looked at a few solutions, where possible, avoiding all Coolermaster psu's :D.
there's the Seasonic S12 650w, Corsair HX-620, Antec TP3 650w. which would be the better out of the 3 or are there better PSUs in the 600-700w range?

also need to futureproof for a G92 8800GTS or 9800GTX, so would 650w be enough to power the gpu, cpu and everythign else?

open to all opinions :)
thanks
 
Corsair HX520/620 or VX550/TX650, Enermax Modu82+/Pro82+ 525/625.
Those are some of the most silent PSU's ATM.
 
I have never had any problems with PCP&C, and have only been using Corsair for a few months, but from what I understand, they both come from the same OEM.
PC P&C Silencers are Seasonic OEM. Corsair V450, TX650, HX520/620 are Seasonic OEM and VX550, TX750, HX1000 are CWT build.
