Ok, so I'm beyond the "my computer hums me to sleep" faze. The bugger's so loud that I actually shut it off so I can watch movies on my TV (in the same room)! When the computer is shut off, you can actually hear the difference three rooms away! I am now building a new system and thus as I begin to contemplate what pieces to throw into my new rig I am faced with the delema:
"using fan cooling, how do I keep my new baby from turning into a screaming banshee while simutaneously keeping her cool enough to handle hardcore games?"
Future planned parts:
- AMD Athlon +2600
- MoBo: to-be-determined
- ATI +9700
- 1GB DDR ram
- 1-2 100GB HDDs
- Creative Gamer sound card (or something)
So I'm wondering (aside from trying to insulate my rig) does anyone have any suggestions on quite fans or anything of the sort?
Thanks again everyone!
