My older OCZ GameXStream 600w was acting up and the fan was making loud noises so I went to go RMA it only to find out I would be w/o PSU for about a week... So needless to say I bought the Corsair vx550w.... This thing barely makes a sound, I'm impressed.
Even sitting in my hand right in front of me the hard drive I threw on for load while jumping to check noise levels was much louder than the PSU, I could barely hear the thing. Anyway tested my OCZ bam Whaaaaaa annoying fan.
It seems to be more than stable powering my system too
x2 5000+
x1900GT
4x512 PNY DDR2
3ware 9500s-8
7x320gb Seagate 7200.10
1x500gb Samsung
Anyway I was impressed so I figured I would share my experience since I haven't seen too many reviews on Corsair's PSUs... Great price too $69.90 after MIR.
