Quiet Power Supply

Here's something to create some debate....
I'm tired of the jet engine in my living room so who has some suggestions for a quiet 350+ watt psu.

I'm using Antec TruePower 430W and it is very very quiet. You can't even notice that the machine is on! It has two dedicated fan only power connectors that control the speed of case fans according to the temperature of the case. Cool stuff!

I've been using "LC" brand "super silent" power supplies recently. They have a honeycomb fully perforated backplate, and one single, slow revving 120 mm fan on the underside. These are really whisper quiet, and have healthily strong, stable and precisely on-the-point voltages. There are 350W and 550W flavors.

Enermax, Antec, PC Power and Cooling (IMO the best)
