my old smps (odyssey) which cost me 700 bucks is getting too much noisy so i am thinking of buying a new one. i have dual core processor and gigabyte g31 board. budget is around 2 to 2.5 k. also suggest me a decent graphics card for some base level gaming (around 1.5-2k). thnx in adv

Get Corsair VS450 @2K
Power of 2K GPU would be no better than iGPU. SO avoid it unless iGPU of existing motherboard isn't working.

will i have to buy new case for this psu?? i have odyssey case with fan grills at the backside. while the vs450 seems like the fan will need the grills on top of the case..

No new cabinet is required.
@thetechfreak: I didn't see SAGA II models in the past 2-3 months in the market. So I guess wither I missed them altogether or they are no longer available everywhere.

but what about the fan vent grills?? they will face upwards where my cabinet is fully closed.. *mail.google.com/mail/?ui=2&ik=d7818d8adb&view=att&th=1386bfc42d6584f5&attid=0.3&disp=safe&realattid=ii_1386bfc168f17592&zw

They will face down-word direction. Rotate the SMPS buy 180degree to get visual interpretation.

^^ PSUs which have fan in its upper side uses the back side as intake & the fan as exhaust. In this design, airflow direction is just the opposite of those PSUs you are talking about.
