I have a GX150 small desktop, the Powersupply fan helps cool the hard drive and the CPU fan is mounted on the side of a large heatsink and is very quiet. Close the case and you can't hear it run.

Although I did acheive just about the same quietness with my Antec Case and Zalman heatsink/92mm fan.
 
There not.


You can make a silent PC with prior proper planning.

Like case with 120mm rear@5V, 120mm PSU, 120mm thermalright @5V.

BTW my cousins got an XPS sounds like a air conditioning condenser fan. I mean you can literally hear it as you walk down the hall twards his office.

Start added high performance parts, like uber Video cards, 3.8Ghz processors, high power PSU's Dell quiet reputation goes down hill ...
 
i use a dell 2400 desktop at school and i do have to admit the damn thing's pretty quiet. but use it in a school environment where everybody's yapping so i'll probably won't hear a pin drop.
