for my build.

Care to tell what build exactly ? But even without that information i can say, stay away from EVGA GA for now, we don't have any info on it's performance. bq! PP11 are good enough but i'd recommend Seasonic Focus for 10$ more especially if you have high-end build, better performance, reliability and longer warranty.

Sorry forgot to mention.

Trying to find the quietest PSU for what is remaining from my tight budget (+- 80)

Go for Seasonic Focus i've mentioned above then, or PP11 if you really need those 10 bucks.

I'm reading some great reviews around Seasonic and how quiet they are... I was not aware of this vendor so thank You for mentioning i'll check them out.

 

Also would you suggest to over engineer on PSU so it works less thus fans won't kick it that often?

If you mean to get higher wattage, no, with your build it wouldn't make any difference as it would be passive anyway (zero RPM mode).

Juular thoughts on the GX version? Reason is because its modular?!

This is older version, not recommended, get semi-modular version i've linked above or this fully-modular version for a few bucks more.

weird bh links get you to the gx version...

Yes, this is GX. The one you've linked, older version - is FX. The one i've linked before, semi-modular newer version is GM.
