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?

How much should I spend if I want a quiet PSU? My budget should be below RM300. I'm thinking of CM Real Power but seems there's not a lot of ppl recommend it....
I'm not doing OC, just normal gaming...
