How many people here have silent PC's?

Well, I've just started my own last night by ordering this beauty.

It's got lots of great reviews so hopefully it wont be a dissapointment.

I also ordered a quiet CPU fan and an extra quiet 120 mm case fan for extra coolness.

Anyway, after I've got it all installed it should be around 20 - 25 dBA's, however I was wondering how my WD 160 Gig and Radeon 9600 would effect the noise level. Would I have to mod them in some way to make them as quiet as the rest?

Mine makes noises similar to a P*SSING FREIGHT TRAIN.



With the odd Hobo noise.

The problem you encounter with reduced noise is increased heat, unless you get watercooling, then its a win-win.
