For a dead silent power supply what would you suggest?
 
Coolermaster extreme power 430w - cheap , quiet , good
Its what im using and i gotta put my ear up to it to hear it.

Antec makes the Phantom series, but the one my friend has gets unsettlingly warm, seeing as the PSU is basically a giant heatsink with a PSU inside :p
 
well, SilentPCReview speaks highly of the Seasonic S12 430w and those guys know quiet.....

i wouldnt get one of those fanless powersupplies. if you dont have really good airflow inside your case, theyll get very hot and lose power.

also, be cautious when people say that their power supplies really are quiet. they may start off as quiet, but when the temps go up, the PSU fan will become pretty loud, which isnt the case with the Seasonic S12 430w.
 
I am running the Antec Phantom 350 with no issues on my rig:
X2 3800+
AIW 9800 Pro
