Be Quiet! Pure Power 9

Thought I would write about my brief experiences with this PSU as it's pretty new and hasn't been mentioned on SPCR before I believe.
The reason for getting one was that my Mum's computer failed and the root cause was a 10 year old PSU from a company called Tsunami: China's 37th best PSU manufacturer!
With not much time to fix it a trip to their local independent computer shop offered a few options. Avoiding the cheap nasty stuff the 400W showed up at £55. It is 80+ Silver rated and semi-modular (ATX connectors are hard wired) plus build quality feels good. The fan is variable and should start around 500rpm and ramp up when it gets hotter. Running a 150W system with a set of 800rpm 120mm fans it is not noticeable.
