PC Power and Cooling makes great products. Very reliable. I've had 3 and not a one has failed. The machines have all been stable. I use one of their Silencer 400's right now and it's been great. My only complaint is that it's not nearly as quiet as they quote on the web page, at least according to my db meter. My Gentoo box is using an Antec with a variable fan. I run it at minimum speed and it's more quiet than the Silencer, however, sometimes the Gentoo box doesn't boot correctly. Possibly a power supply issue, but also possibly an Asus BIOS issue. (One long beep, three short beeps - no vga code, and no video.) Zalman is another good company that has more recently started shipping power supplies. They have one they say is 'Zero Noise'.
