Anybody can recommend me a silent PSU? Not really into overclocking.... I've read so many reviews on Silverstone Strider ST405, Acbel Intelligent Power 450W, Coolermaster Extreme Power, etc...now starting to be abit confusing. One website say that one is good, then the other website says not good... then suddenly one person say must get PSU with Active PF...now really dun know which one to get...

please help. I'm only looking for a good, decent, QUIET PSU.

p/s : I almost made up my mind to buy Acbel, but then read from some comments from forumers saying that Coolermaster PSU fails alot and it's from Acbel made. How now?

when comes to <450W PSU, avoid CoolerMaster or Acbel, get Silverstone, Enermax, FSP, Antec instead thumbup.gif, IMO, Silverstone ST405, Enermax Liberty 400W, Enermax FMA 350W is a good choice... hmm.gif, forget 350W Enermax FMA tongue.gif, too low i think for todays computing...

Ok thanks bro...btw is the Active PF thing really crucial? From wat I read, SIlverstone Strider ST405 does not have this feature. What about the noise level? which one is the quietest?

doh.gif, my Enermax FMA isn't Active PFC and my Zeus is Active PFC, nothing different... unsure.gif, anyway, actually i meant, IMO, doesnt really matter... smile.gif, noise level? i must say, Silverstone is the most quiet PSU among those i listed... thumbup.gif

Strider series also have modular design but its only available from the 600W version and above.Not the 560W. Anyway, at first, i am in love with modular designed PSU but after some research about modular being not so good when it comes to performance, i started to have my doubts..And when the cable of my cousin's OCZ Modstream became loose, i lost interest with modular design and only focused on those normal designed one.One thing too bad bout the ST56F is its not fully sleeved and when it comes to me who is a person that lacks technique in sleeving, its going to be a problem when i get it for myself - hopefully by next week or another...

225W is hardly enough for ur current setup.
If wanna upgrade to AMD 4800, need to switch to a 400W PSU atleast.
As usual, Enermax FMA 535W or Silverstone Strider 560W would be good.
Cost arround RM320-350.

Do you mean the ST60F? wow, all is modular... but the price... sweat.gif still can't make my mind on which PSU should I get... thinking of get Liberty 500W...what you guys think, if I upgrade to C2D, 2GB DDR2, adding few more 120mm fan, add high capacity hdd to replace current low capacity hdd,should be enough juice right...since C2D is consume less power? unsure.gif Not going to upgrade gc as I am not hardcore gamer, so my current 7600GS should be sufficient, and I am not going to use Vista that fast... laugh.gif

Decathlon series only offer 650W; 750W and 1200W, the price? it's gonna be very expensive, well maybe same price range with Olympia series...

Liberty 500W is good i must say..., not meant a Liberty thought, but i meant, 500W should be sufficient for your system...
