I have Antec Sonata II with low-noise SmartPower 2.0 450W which is about to die.

I have quite old system, so I don't anything too powerful, yet quality and silence are important.
Rough system's specs:

CPU: AMD Atlon (venice) 3500+
MB: Gigabyte GA-K8NSC-939 nvidia nForce3 250Gb
RAM: 2x1G crucial
Storage: 1sata+1pata HDs; 1sata+1pataoptical drives.
Video - Radeon X850 - AGP8x

PSU requirements:
About 450W, quality!, silent.
Molex connectors is a must.

I am considering 4 PSUs. Please help me to choose or suggest anything similar.

1. Antec TruePower Trio 430
2. OCZ 500W StealthXStream
3. ThermalTake TR2 470W Black Silent
4. Antec EarthWatts 430W

Ta!
 
There is not much to worry about here, just pick one that is not the most expensive... All listed should work fine
 
The Earthwatts 430 is the best out of those choices and will likely be the most silent. That being said, all of them are excellent and you won't go wrong with any of them.
 
The 450VX is a fantastic choice and since you've been recommended it once already, let me recommend it too.. :)
But seriously, it is a superb unit that far outclasses all the others on your list. It may be a bit more expensive, but is definitely worth it.
