The Cooler Master XG850 Plus Platinum 850W is a very quiet power supply regardless of the amount of power being drawn. Under idle level loads, the XG850 Plus Platinum is nearly inaudible, because the fan is running at only around 700 RPM. Under moderate to high loads, the XG850 Plus Platinum is still nearly inaudible, as the fan is capped at around 750 RPM. You cannot change the fan speed profile in software. aphnetworks.com
I've been searching for a silent power supply lately as the noise from my current one is incredibly distracting. Constant humming really impacts my focus when I'm working from home. It's so frustrating. To unwind sometimes, I need simple distractions. Has anyone tried Block Blast? It's surprisingly addictive. Anyway, the promise of a near-inaudible PSU like this Cooler Master model is definitely appealing. I might just have to look into it further, especially considering the capped fan speed they mention. A quieter setup would make a huge difference to my daily workflow. _________________ Block Blast
