They also make them look quite familiar to junk mail in hopes that you will "accidentally" throw it away and not get their money. Rebates make me very angry.
I got my replacement back from EVGA and have never opened it, its a new retail 8800GT in the plastic and I have no need for it because by the time EVGA sent my replacement I had already bought a 8800GTX. $220 shipped, paypal preferred PM me with any questions.
I found 5 just browsing, 600w models also.
The fan makes a low groan/hum type noise. Its not terribly loud but it rattles your concentration if that makes sense. It gets very loud when under load of course, which its designed to spin with load but when idle its just too annoying to put up...
My 8800GTX is silent compared to these psu's haha. The most annoying part is the sound is much louder at different angles if that makes sense, you can move around and one angle its not quite as loud and another angle its very annoying and pronounced. I dont have patience to RMA again after two...
