please help make my powermac silent!

Hi.

I've just got a mint powermac g4 dual 1.25ghz MDD pc and loving it only problem is, its soooo noisey and I was hoping to use it as a media server/htpc for my hi fi system for now. I've looked at the various websites at replacing the fans etc but what do I replace them with?

I need 1 120mm fan and 2 40mm fans. I recently purchased a silenx fan from OC which is very quiet but doesn't shift enough air and causes the optical fan to kick in and create just as much noise as the original 120mm.

Is there anything that offers a good compromise of shifting air and running quietly.

Thanks

thanks.

the was'nt aimed at gumbald I was just hoping to find a quiet 120mm that would shift some air, maybe the noctua will do?

I bought the powermac mdd as I love the look of them and like the fact I can upgrade them with better graphics cards/better sound cards etc unlike the mini.

I might use the mdd as a normal computer and start building a htpc and put OSX 10.5 on it and kill two birds with one stone lol.

Do you know of anyone who has water cooled a g4 mdd? If so I'd be interested to see what they used as I'd like to have a look in to doing something along those lines if it would be possible.
