help for silent computer

[RyanB18]

i am putting my computer in my room, and i want it to be silent. curretnly i have 2 case fans (1 unplugged), and the volcano 5 hsf. i am running an athlon 1.4 tbird. how can i make this almost silent? also i am NOT overclocking. if i unplugged the remaining case fan. would my temps be ok? they are pretty high right now according to mboard monitor.

If your motherboard supports it, get an Alpha PAL8045 with an 80mm enermax adjustable fan and set it to 1/4 speed. Then replace your case fans with enermax adjustables as well and set those to 1/4 speed. Worked for me. You may also want to replace your PSU fan with a quiet panaflo. Good luck

water cooling.....VERY quiet.....and then you get the added benefit of easy overclocking..especially with your cpu which might already be unlocked

i would recommend the svc gc-68 heatsink and fan. it uses an 80mm fan on a 60mm base. u can buy it from svc or case-mod.com. also theres a review on snowpunk's site ocmodshop.com. u should look into it. a lot of people are saying they are happy with this heatsink.
