Hello, as title says, I am looking for a PSU, wattage and efficiency doesn't really matter, something around 550-650W Gold, I am going to use it in a Silverstone SG13, with underclocked i5-4690K and no dedicated GPU for time beeing (but would like to have oportuinity to add it in future) and it is supposed to act as a server and as a htpc, so powered 24/7 on almost idle, and sometimes acting as a TV or as a console for simple games.
Also havent built a PC for a few years, so sorry if I say something stupid.
So, as SG13 has very limited space, and I want a super silent box, these are the main criterions for me:

So, as SG13 has very limited space, and I want a super silent box, these are the main criterions for me:
■140mm in lenght (150mm might do, but better 140)
■fully modular
■0 rpm when idle
■Silverstone Strider ST50F-PB or ST60F-PB - recomended for SG13, fully modular, 140mm, but not available in my country unless with huge shipping costs and looks like no 0 rpm when low power and no manual fan control, please correct me if I am wrong;
■EVGA SuperNOVA 550 GS or 650 GS - lovely looking PSU, Gold certified for extra 5$ compared to Silverstone Strider, Eco mode, but 150mm in lenght, might squeeze it in, but again not available in my country
■Silverstone SFX Series SX500-LG, would need to use ATX bracket, and only 500W, and only 2 years warranty, I do not like it, only good thing this one is available in my country, so would be the cheapest solution and easy service, still would like a better psu...
