By noise if your talking about coil whine that is really just the luck of the draw, both are good brands as long as you get a decent quality unit. What are your specs we can determine the requirements more accurately for the system.

What are the specs of your system? 

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

Tier 3 is excellent as well. Also why don't you link the LTT tier list

If you only need 500W and have a set budget there's no point spending extra. I have an EVGA 500W in tier 3 as far as I can figure out. I have had it for over 18 months and there is no discernable coil whine and it works perfectly well.

 which one

Between those two the CX M series would be a better option, but that would be for around a mid tier system depending on the components that will be used with it.

 which one

The CX*50M. For your GPU that doesn't require a PEG connector, the CX450M would save you some money and will be overkill still.
