Looking for a PSU that is going too be damd nigh silent as possible. Around the 400 watt mark. Needs too be quite good quality ie stable because i just got into overclocking and i think the one i have is causing reboots. Only a cheapo qtec gold. Any ideas???
budget?
The Zalman options are the hush hush PSU's mate :) The enermax versions have the speed control of the main fan so can be made as quiet as possible and has given me no problems so far :D
I can recomend the Nexus 3500, its 350 watt but top quality and very quiet. Just has 1 120mm fan in it that spins up automaticcaly when the temp gets to high. Never had mine speed up though, always on the slow quiet setting. I have it powering a lot of kit, 2 HDD's, 2 optical drives, Rad9800Pro, 4 CC's and 3 fans with no trouble.
about £80 max
In that case mate the Zalman would do nicely for the noise level issue, but I am unsure about its reliability. The enermax will definately sort you out though :)
there's the much hyped (deservedly, from the hexus review) Tagan 480W supplies for around £60ish...supposed to be quieter than the zalmans.
