Alright well I've been building a new PC and am just about to purchase a PSU. But which one would you suggest from these two?:

Corsair 550W VX Series

or

OCZ Stealth XStream 600W
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/127861

I basically want the quietest and most reliable PSU out of the two. So which one? :na:

1.The first question is: do I need a 600W PSU or a 550W one?
If you dress the list of your system build, you can estime what's the power consumption of it.
2.You can try to check comments of customers, I'm sure there's complain about noise if somethings wrong.
3.I bet there's some benchmark on the net for these PSU, so search a bit and you'll probably find better informations.
