482088 2006-09-02 01:58:00 My head's hurting from googling - the choices are overwhelming.
I want a new case and PSU. Low noise is a must for both.
Minimum PSU power 450W, must have SATA connections.
Mid or full tower case, I'm into minimalism - not a flashy gaming case in fire engine red.
My budget is not unlimited but I'll pay what I must to get a good setup.
All suggestions welcome.
Thanks.

482089 2006-09-02 02:20:00 I brought a thermaltake 430w for $60 .

Only coz it didnt come in a box or anything .

Its quiet enough for me . But it only came with 1 SATA power
connector, and a adapter for 24 pin mobos .

only if it runs slow - some of them go for more air movement rather than less noise
