Need quieter PSU for my system

Hello SPCR members!
I'm a first time poster, long-time reader of this terrific website
I've learned a lot and I assembled a new PC recently, its all nice and quiet except for 1 thing : PSU
PC:
Intel i7-3770K
32 GB DDR3 RAM
1 SSD 128Gb
1 HDD WD Green Caviar
Asus GFX 660ti dc2u
Case = CM Silencio 550
3 Noiseblocker fans
Atm I have a Cooler Master Silent Pro M2 650W in this system, I think it's overkill, and it's making noise when I stress my CPU.
So maybe I could try a fanless PSU for this system? Is my case good enough for a fanless PSU? (not really good airflow)
Cheers!
