So its too loud, what would be a best route to shut the damn thing up? Quiet fans?
i was looking around for a new power supply and i found this http://www.directron.com/blackps.html
does anyone have super flower ps? is it good?
is it quiet?
what are some brands that i could get that are really quiet but also come in black colors?
p.s. if someone likes the vantec stealth power supplies, i got a 420 watt one, its sexy but i want a super quiet pc and willing to let this one go for a reasonable price (unless i decide to mod the damn thing and make it quiet).

you know i thought the same thing myself until i bought the vantec stealth powersupply. Vantec stealth fans are considered as some of the best quiet fans you can get, however their powersupply pulls more then 50db during normal operation.....
I also have a superflower case, and the fans are pretty quiet however i want to make sure that the ps is as quiet as i hope before i blow more money on it.
overall i think i may have to mod it. which is no biggie. I am still very curious to hear from anyone that actually owns a superflower power supply as i have the money to buy a new one and it would be less of a pain in the ass.
