Im semi thinking about getting one. Now I've had shuttles before. I had a 30th Anniversary shuttle a few years back. had it for a day and sent it back it was that noisy, so can 25P owners tell me how loud it is please.
i have sn25p and it quieter than my tower ,and now they have a lot fan options in bios.
my spec is fx57+7800gtx and 2 gig of ram +250 harddrive and 40 gig backup,it does not get noisy not like old shuttles when fan use to go up and down .i hope it helps as well it is very good bit of kit ,onboard sound is very good as well
The only time the fans are really noisy is during the first couple of seconds after switching on/rebooting (because the fans are going at full speed). But once the BIOS kicks in the machine is quiet; the noise level then depends on what disks & gfx card you have. The really noisy thing in my SN25P is the graphics card.
I used to run my SN25P, and then SN26P on a fixed speed setting and they both ran very quiet.. like someone mentioned above, they're a lot better than the older Shuttles because their design is that much better
FYI: I used to run the SN25P on "mid" and the SN26P on "low"
