The 500 and 600 use the same fan, so the 600 will be noisier. The 430 uses a lower speed fan. I think i'll go for the 500 and do a fan swap if its too bad.
Tried to do a recording but the noise of the transformers in my bench psu buzzing redered it useless. I do have an old psu with a new 80mm nexus fan in it which i can use if i can find somewhere silent.
I'm sure spcr must have done a recording of this at some point tho...
Edit: The nexus fan must be around 17dba at 5v which is the same as the 92mm fan. SPCR says that barely audible.
