Silent Computer

[harrison_pooley]

I have recently purchased a Zalman Cpu cooler, akasa silent psu and akasa silent case fans but my pc is stilll rather loud. I was wondering if anyone could recommend anything eg: better case fans, which will reduce the noise coming from my pc with out sacrificing performance.

All comments will be appreciated, thanks.

I have quickly looked into soundproofing mateirials but wasnt sure if they dramatically increased the case temp.

you didnt say you want lower temp too, just the noise reduction

what zalman cooler? the 7000 can 7700 can get loud sometimes, the case fans are most likely the problem, do u know what model the fans are?

if u can afford watercooling then that would reduce the noise alot

For the record, lets define "loud" (in sones, decibles or equivalent objective measure)
