Soldato
As title. I don't know if ppl here will find this useful, but I replaced all the original fans with four zalman 80mm and and mounted them using the soft rubber grommets. Initially, when I first turned it on, it hummed loudly which I traced to the fan in the top of the case. I disconnected it and, voila, near instant silence. the only thing now is isolate the case from it's surroundings, its sitting in a wooden cabinet, on a wooden floor and I can feel the vibes physically coming up through the desk. I tried buying some of those noise isolating feet from a certain site, but that was a no go, so I'm off to see if I can get summat similar and cheap to try as well.
I'm keeping an eye on temps, but I ran prime95 for a coupla hours and the temp never went over 35 degrees C, but that was in a moderately cool environment. Incidentally, I've got an X1900XT in me case as well, and other than start up, I can hardly hear the fan running, and thats with four very quiet fans, so I'll mention this fact in the graphic card forum.
Hope someone finds this useful.
