Which PSU would you folks go with? Is the Signature considered loud? I haven't been able to find any reviews that say whether or not this is a noise PSU.

the Antec Signature 650 was reviewed here, did very well. As was the Seasonic M12D 850. Both are top rated PSU's, albeit very expensive.
Are you sure you need that much power? Unless your running SLI/Xfire i doubt you do.

Well I don't plan to run SLI or XFire right away, but I could see myself doing so in the future. That being said, if I am going to put down $$$ on a nice PSU that is 625W I might as well go with something that will offer expandability, so in this range is it worth looking at any other PSU's? How are the enermax psu's?

Since they are not avalible in Sweden I don't have any personal experience, but from what I've read the Enermax Modu82+ are the best when it comes to silence, and I do belive they come in a 625W model.
