cheers mate, and sorry for the double thread, not quite sure what happened there, admin or mod can delete the other one

heh, thats the current HSF i have now aswell, and it is damn near silent, im looking at getting the Arctic Cooling Freezer 4, which is actually less at 1.0 sone, the Super Silent Ultra 4 was higher at 1.4sone.... strange, but i suppose thats development for ya....

cheers, dragon

*EDIT* - that guy also sells the freezer 4 - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI....sPageName=MERC_VIC_RSCC_Pr4_PcY_BIN_Stores_IT woot woot, less than 20 dBA, im soo getting that, not from him though, its cheaper on www.ebuyer.co.uk

thanks mate, youve been a massive help, cheers
