Remm Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 I'm considering this PSU but would like to know decibels. I checked the FAQ here, the manual, and Googled the model +decibels to no avail. Can anyone please direct me to this spec? Thank You. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remm Posted February 18, 2009 Author Share Posted February 18, 2009 Thanks so much. Now a stupid question! :) Does this mean the VX550 operates at 40dba all the time, or only when the components are pulling full demand of 550W? In other words, am I to assume from this graph that because my normal load will be under 350 watts, I can expect the VX550 to operate at ~22dba or less? Thanks for your very prompt reply, Ram Guy.

Wired Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 The graph depends on the load at a given point in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
