Fans don't get quite than "off"

We switched to these aty work a year ago. I've always been impressed by the fan turning off under low load. So when I decided to build a new pc and focus on making it quiet, this was an easy choice.

CORSAIR Enthusiast Series RM1000i High Performance Power Supply ATX12V / EPS12V 1000W Power Supply - 80 PLUS Gold certified, Corsair Link monitoring and control

It's a great power supply when you're looking for a 1kW. I wasn't a huge fan of the GPU cable as it has 2 end connectors rather than just allowing me to only use the 1 as in my setup, so the look is not so good, but it is easy to get mod cables anyway so I will be doing this.

My good old trusty Enhance ENP-5150GH finally gave up after more than 10 years of service. Looking for a replacement that hopefully will last as long. This is a very good replacement for me after some research. Very nice PSU and easy to install.

80 gold; more than enough connections; very quiet; 10 years warranty

Easy install

Bought this to replace a PSU that failed. Runs quiet ( or at least quieter than my GPU, which is all I ever hear ). Fully modular cabling made it easier to retrofit by letting me replace the cables before swapping out the actual PSU unit.

Bought the Seasonic 460 FL, Seasonic 400 FL, and two Corsair RMx 550W, and one of the Corsair is the best (relatively speaking)

My recommendation would be to buy the Corsair RMx/i series and advanced because oh my gosh it was at least less variable in noise production compared to Seasonic. To add icing on the cake, my brother bought Seasonic's Flagship Prime 650W PSU and it had the same loud coil whine as my Seasonic 460FL...

Mini ITX case is the Thermaltake F1 Suppressor; and it's sitting on the table in my silent room so I can easily pick up noise I7 6700 ASUS Dual GTX 1070 (do NOT get this) -gamed at 1080p in Overwatch and WoW maxed settings Corsair is much less heavy in weight and noise.

In order of purchase date: -460 FL: The loudest electronic noise out I heard of the bunch and that I've ever heard of; It's a mix of buzzes and clicks like a quiet but cheap hard drive; Was not tolerable to the slightest.

Very quiet with an exceptionally long warranty for a pice

I personally went for it because of the 10-year warranty and the fully modular design. Very sleek and very quiet when the fan is in operation. Apart from the specifics, included is a handy bag to store the cables you are not using and a single USB motherboard header cable for the monitoring...

When Corsair launched the RMx-series we only received power supplies of 750 watt or higher. However now we gotten our hands on the 550 and 650 watt models. Note that the price difference is not that much, especially considering the step up in price when looking at an RM850x or an RM1000x.
