Which Power?

[XxRoCkMaNxNEOxX]

i kno u guys prob. get this question all the time but which brand provides quiet but does not produce too much heat and also has stable voltage. TT, ANTEC, ENERMAX, Zalman?

 

[dave_graham]

i tend to prefer Antec but Thermaltake and Vantec make good power supplies too.

cheers,

I do not know how loud the Thermaltakes are, however I do know that Antecs are much quieter than Enermaxs, and Zalman PSUs are know for the quietness. Check out www.silentpcreview.com/section4.html

Vantec make good power supplies too.

Agreed, however the Vantec Steath PSU is anything but that

 

[dave_graham]

yeah, not played around with any Vantec PS in a while, so...good to know.

Xice is also offering a quiet power supply. http://www.xice.de

cheers,

im interested in the 480thermal take, does it produce a lot of heat and is it quiet?

 

[dave_graham]

it shouldn't produce much heat going into the case, but i can't be sure...

quiet wise, as long as you use the fan bus for the PS, it should be adjustable to taste.

cheers,

dave

Another outstanding review site is Xbit labs,I especially liked this recent review I read about the venerable FSP group by Oleg Artamonov
