How can I solve the fan noise problem with the DeepCool PQ650M PSU (R-PQ650M-FA0B-EU) ?
Who else has come across it? Judging by the reviews, this problem occurs with many people. Other manufacturers also have a similar problem. But the squeak of the throttles is also added to it.
Which PSU with an active cooling switch should I choose so that there is no fan noise or throttle squeak?

i've never had a highly rated power supply that makes audible noise.
the last 3; Super Flower Leadex III, be quiet! Dark Power Pro 11, Seasonic GX.

never had to deal with or worry about cooling and/or quiet modes because they use better fans with better bearings so the noise never exceeds even light usage of other components.

if the unit is out of warranty you could manually replace the fan with something of much higher quality.
though this can be a difficult option depending on the setup of the interior of the unit.

or, if you can keep the rest of your overall system temperatures down enough then the PSU fan may never need to ramp up enough to produce audible noises.

while DeepCool has produced some higher tiered units, the majority of their PSUs have been mid>lower range.
if it is still under manufacturer warranty i'd probably go for an RMA and hope the replacement operates with no issue(s).

but even then i would sell the replacement DeepCool and just take this option to replace it with something better.
