    I like that grill... being bars and not a traditional grill... lots less wire and probabyl less turbulence but a fully covered fan.

    That ripple is a worry when my old Antec does significantly better. What are the risks of this variance ?

    The low noise and good airflow of Be Quiet products is a great selling point and I think if things go to plan I will be owning this PSU and pair it up with the Dark Rock 2 on the CPU. Just need a review on IvyBridge and the mentioned cooler and band account will get emptied.
