Enermax Noisetaker EG701AX-VE SFMA 2.0: 600 Watts! :: SilentPCReview.com: They liked it overall, it's quiet for the amount of power it supplies.

Over the past 18 months, power supply manufacturers have pushed the maximum output ratings for their top ATX products well beyond the 400W range. Enermax's Noisetaker line is a perfect example of this trend; the current top model is rated for a whopping 600W! This is considerably higher than the 470W Noisetaker that we reviewed last March.
Overall, the Noisetaker 701 is fairly quiet, but no PSU designed to deliver this much power has low noise as a primary goal. There are other models on the market that can compete quite capably with the Noisetaker in terms of both efficiency and quality of fan controller. The Noisetaker 701 is a very good PSU choice for low noise, and if you really need — or want, more likely — this kind of power level, then it's probably about as quiet as you can expect. We have yet to test any other PSUs that can deliver 600W.
