I'm planning to set up in the NCASE M1 in a month or two and require an SFX/SFX-L PSU. I understand Silverstone offers a SFX 600W, but it tends to be quite loud. I also recall they have a quieter SFX-L 500W model and better cooling, though I'm unsure if it would suffice for my setup. Currently, I'm running a Gigabyte 970 G1 Gaming with an i7 6700K at stock/4.5ghz OC and using a Maximus Impact VIII. I'm not sure if a 600W SFX PSU will be enough before the next high-end GPU arrives. I haven't heard much about Silverstone's new SFX PSUs since summer either. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Purchase the Silverstone 600 watt, it won't be noisy until you take it out of use, then your graphics card and CPU cooler will be louder anyway.

Purchase the Silverstone 600 watt, it won't be noisy until you reduce the power, after that your graphics card and CPU cooler will be more noticeable.
