Supermicro 846 PWS-1K28P-SQ vs PWS-920P-SQ Noise

[Groto]

Hi,

I may be purchasing a Supermicro 846 chassis that comes with 2 x PWS-1K28P-SQ preinstalled stock from the factory.

I was curious on the noise level of the PWS-1K28P-SQ vs the PWS-920P-SQ. Does anyone know if 1 is quieter than the other or are they about the same on noise? I have looked around, but haven't seen many posts about the noise comparing these two.

I've seen some posts about not all chassis fitting the PWS-1K28P-SQ, but if the case already has those preinstalled stock, could this chassis also fit a PWS-920P-SQ instead of it is significantly quieter?

This is the exact chassis model I am looking at if it helps determine if the 920SQ would it in its place if needed: 846BE1C-R1K28B

Thanks in advance.

I had both psus in my 846 and couldn't tell a difference in noise.

I'm using the 920sq because the whole server consumes less than 300 watt and the 920sq is more efficient.

thank you! Does anyone else have any experiences with these two?
