Currently it's the Seasonic X-400, if your case have the right place for it (an open grille right on the PSU to pull air).
If not, probably the Seasonic X-560.
You don't need either 400W or 560W, but they are virtually silent under 150W.

'Cause of the natural convection of hot air

As the Seasonic X-400/X-460 have no fan, your case have not to block the PSU top grille.smoke123 wrote:i dont follow...where does the grill have to be?...My PSU is on the top...with the fan blowing air directly out????
If you can't cope with this requirement, I mean it's better (and safer) to go for the Seasonic X-560.
