Power Supply?

I can't pick between 2 power supplies. I have my mind made up that it is going to be one of these 2, I don't mind wasting my money I guess. They are the first two new ones at Performance-pcs.com, the Hiper and the Sintek. Any suggestions? I am kind of leaning towards the Hiper because it has a bigger fan and is quieter. Thanks for any tips.
 
I don't need that much power at the moment but I might in the future. So getting a bigger than necessary PSU isn't a bad move. I have pretty standard stuff, no SLI video or dual processors or anything.
 
For the price of those you could get a Seasonic S12-600, OCZ Powerstream 520w or even a Sparkle FSP550-60PLG. The Sparkle being the most powerful, but has a loud server-class fan. You could replace it if you wish though.
 
Just to make things more difficult, are fanless PSU's worth getting yet? Also I just found some really good models from Coolmax, Enermax, and Antec, phantom series.
