i ve just moved my tower to the nearest room to mine (kitchen).
I made 2 holes to the wall,one for the power cord,and one for the audio cables.
Oh god!!!
It rocks,i would suggest it to anyone.
I dont miss at all the racing car sounds of my system fans,
Stop going after the more silence fan,
the solution is into your next room (hopefully not your parrents bedroom:)

or add a water cooler! like im going to do !
1 for the cpu and 1 for the gpu
so only 1 fun of the psu will still be audible but im gonna silence it with some acoustic foam in the pc box! and still be able to access the cdroms without going to the next room!
but im really happy for u index!

i know of a guy who made a sound insulated box for his computer.,....
i am going to get the plans to make it , and then get an external bay for my dvd rom/wrter , so the whole tower will be insulated and i can acess my ROM drive etc, as well as a USB bus, for on the fly external plugins/outs (HD's etc) |

watercooling for sure is great but noise comes from
psu fans too,vga fans or even the hard disks.
there was so much noise into the room...moving tower to another room its a brilliant idea and much more cheaper going after silence
Recommented!

if you want top run a cd/dvd, must you go through to the other room to pop it in?
if you do, i recommened getting a drive bay, but you cant run the cables for long lengths.... |

these days you have pipe-cooling cases. Those cases cool the motherboard and a little bit of the internal warmth. You also have pipe coolers voor processors... They are huge, but that is because they have to cool a whole lot... There are also pipe-coolers for graphics cards, and there are power supplys with pipecooling too... It takes a lot of looking around to get all the necessary pipe-coolers and especially the cases are hard to find (i found towers, 2u racks and 3u racks... I'm looking for a 4u rack ofcourse and that doesn't exist yet... But if you don't need that, zalman has a very good pipe-cooled tower case).
Why pipecooling? There are no moving parts, so it can't deteriorate except by external causes. It doesn't use electricity (it only uses the laws of termal physics). There's a gel inside pipe-coolers, and when the gel is cold it goes into the circuit that is close to the device, to cool it. When the gel gets hot it goes through the pipe to the part where the pipe goes through the cooling fins and the gel gets cooled down... Etc... It's a great system!! But it takes some effort to build one that uses only pipe cooling... And if the air around it is not cool enough it's not that efficient, you have to keep it in an already relatively cool room... |

oh, i forgot... And there are pipe-cooled encapsulations for harddisks, next to cooling your hard disk, this has the added advantage that it filters out some of the harddisk noise (and when you don't have fans, you notice how noisy they really are ) |
