I have always had lots of fans in my PC because I thought it was necessary for good airflow with top components. I am now fed up with the noise they make and want a quiet PC. I am currently biulding the following:

4GHz I7 Bundle from ocuk. UD5, Patriot etc.
128Gb SSD M225
1Tb HDD
4870 (5870 on release day)
DVD Rom
Case with 1 extra fan

Anyone else run theirs with just 1 small fan in the case and the CPU cooler?

My build will not be finished until mid week. I dont mind a little noise but not the hairdryer i currently have.

Cheers
