Just got a new PC Power & Cooling Turbo-Cool 350, and it works great, but I do a lot of writing and this thing is too darn loud for me to focus. I'm thinking of grabbing a Silencer 275, but the idea of dropping below the 300W level kinda spooks me. My power-drawing specs:
TBird 1Ghz
DVD Drive
7200RPM DeskStar
GeForce GTS w/ fan
Chassis, CPU, and Chipset fans
SBLive!
Ethernet Card
Floppy
Will a 275 suffice? Moreover, at 34dB, will it really be all that quieter than my current 48dB power supply? Those decibel ratings don't sound very different to me. My current PS sounds like a jet engine, while the Silencer line is supposed to be "difficult to hear".
