Which of the two PSUs produce the least noise? Is there any other alternative within 3K?

From what I gather Antec is quieter.

Corsair are using a 120MM Yate Loon fan, model number D12SH-12. This is a sleeve bearing 2,200 rpm fan, which can produce 88 cfm airflow at 40 dBa.

Antec : Opening up the power supply reveals a 120mm Yate Loon fan. The model on the fan is D12SM12 and has a rated amperage of .36amps (at 12V). The noise level is listed to be about 33 dBA at 1650 rpm. It has a airflow rate of 70.5 cfm.
