Hey I'm looking to get something quieter than the PCP&C, is there anything that can power all this?

Intel D975XBX
Intel Core 2 Duo E6600
2GB DDR2
ATI X1900XT
WD Raptor
2 x Seagate 160GB
Highpoint 2320
8 x Seagate 300GB
2 x Optical drives

thanks

Which PC P&C model do you have?
510W PCI-E and a 1KW
I'd heard the 1KW was quieter so I decided to try it out - I'd say it's a lot louder, although it doesn't make the irritating "buzz" of my 510W

I have 2 PC P&C PSU's (an older 425W that's NLA and a 470W "Silencer"). Neither of those are all that loud. I've heard that the 510's are noisy. That's the reason I have the 470. Never heard anything about the 1kw until now. Thanks for the info.
 
I have an Antec truepower 2.0 550w, dead silent and very cool. Id recomend it.
 
Try the XClio GreatPower 700W or 750W PSU. It has 14cm fan which runs quite silently even under heavy load, plus the PSU itself is great. Check it out.
