What ever floats your boat, ey. I need my silence, so I'll pay the extra amount to get it, and have good cooling too.

Welcome to the club. I love noisy rigs just like some people like the sound of choppers. They could make quieter choppers if they wanted to, but the novelty of having one is the manly-ass noise that comes from it.Originally posted by: DangerAardvark
I put as many fans with reasonable CFM/dB ratio as I can find. And I put the fastest on my CPU. When I boot up it sounds like a jet taking off. And I'm fine with that. A high performance PC should sound high performance. I want to scare my cat every time I hit the power button.
All I care about is a cool case. Noise is of no concern to me.

thats exactly how i feel, noise is something YOU can get used to, heat is not something your components can get use to

Originally posted by: Pauli Besides, simply adding more fans does not mean that you are making the system cooler - there is a point of diminishing returns. If you are willing to spend some time and effort, you can have both a quiet, cool, and powerful system.

My KV&M are 10ft away from my computer which sits in a closet. I open the doors only when I want to light the room blue from UV or showing someone my rig, but for the most part I enjoy the quiet. I don't need a noisy beast to know I have a powerful dually.
Well, my case is always within 2º C of the room temperature so I'm happy. I just have a total of 7 80mm fans in my case. Two front intakes, a side intake, two rear exhausts and two on the heat sink (which is 18k gold-plated for super-conductivity). My CPU NEVER gets above 46C on load. Secondly I have a fan control panel that I can lower the noise with, so it's no big deal.Originally posted by: Pauli

A quieter computer is a better computer to 99.999% of all PC users (my own estimate). The rest of you are oddballs who are probably very bad company anyway.

Well if you are stupid enough to go for pure quiet and not be smart and get quiet components then yes. But most people who are going quiet get high quality low noise comoponents.
