    Agreed, the VX450 is a nice unit, I have built a system with one. The 400CX and 450VX are very attractive units. The 550 less so, the 520HX is typically what I recommend instead of it.

    No complaints with the OCZ so far, can't hear it all

    Just goes to show the difference in the perceptions of quiet out there. I can't bear the noise OCZ PSUs put out.
