ANyhow, you can at least get an idea from their site what components they are using, and they do have some completely fanless options.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17637712 Sun, 14 Jan 2007 00:18:07 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17616357 usa2k : This is a great forum and all, and I don't want to get off course from the topic ...... but I wonder what hardware is noisy these days?

7 years ago most were noisy - most PCs off-the-shelf are whisper quiet now. My wifes, new dell at work - I had to look for lights when the screen blacked out. It was silent.

I guess for people to offer a fully authoritative opinion, they would have to max the PC's resources. (to be sure)

I've had my present computer (a Dell) for almost 3 years now and I'm looking to replace it. I haven't been keeping up with components so I have no idea what to look for when buying the parts I need to build a silent PC. Here's what I do know though. I know I want the following:

Intel Core Duo 2 processor
2GB RAM
250GB + Hard Drive (silent)
High end video card

I mainly use the computer for programming and using Microsoft Flight Simulator.

What cases/fans/psu should I consider? If this has been asked before then please accept my apology and I will do a search.

I've been considering an imac since they are so quiet but I think I want a little more power and upgradability. The macs are super quiet and that's what I'm looking for. My current Dell sounds like a jet plane taking off.

Thanks for the help!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,17615975 Wed, 10 Jan 2007 14:21:29 EDT
