RE: Quietish PC

I can also strongly recommend the Zalman flowers, I have them in all
three of the PC's I run 24/7. Also take a look at the Zalman Northbridge
cooler (If you have a fan on the mobo) and also the resistor cables are
very good at quietening down case fans. The other big noise generator is
often the PSU in my experience. All my PC's now run the excellent
Silverstone near silent PSU's from LinITX.com, they also stock the resistor
cables.
If you really want to go "all out" fit a Zalman graphics card
cooler (If your card has a fan) but be aware that it makes the card v.wide
and you will loose a PCI slot, also a Zalman Hard Drive Caddy and add some
sound deadening to the case.
Do all of this and you will be amazed at how quite you can make a PC!
www.quietpc.com is a good source of info but I have found better service
and pricing from www.linitx.com and www.overclockers.co.uk.
