Quiet/Good Powersupply

At the moment I got an Thermaltake 500w Tr2 powersupply.

But in recent weeks I noticed in games like Rainbow Six,GTA 5,Rust,...

that it gets really loud, what i firstly thought was a GPU or CPU problem but after

bit of testing I noticed it was the powersupply.

That is why I am searching for a new one because it is getting pretty annoying (it is at idle as loud has my GPU under heavy load)

 

My Specs:

I5-4460 

GTX 1080

1TB Harddrive/128GB SSD

3x Be Quiet Pure Wingsfan

AsRock B85m Pro3

16GB DDR3 RAM

tier 3 or above is good. 550W PSU is already more than enough for your system, even allowing a CPU upgrade if you do so.

Not all of them are equally quiet, though. 

G2 is quite loud, but not as loud as a graphics card on full load.

Since you are from Austria:

 

be quiet Pure Power 10, Straight Power 11 400-550W

Bitfenix Whisper M or Formua 450 or 550W. The 650W is way louder under load...
