Hi, I just racked my main PC yesterday and i'm very happy with the result. The 19" standard rack cost me 220 euros and it cut the PC noise by at least 60 to 70%! My machine is a Bi PIII 933 with 3 HDs, a GeForce 3 et all PCI ports used. It didn't made the procesors temperature change too (i was a bit concerned about that too). They stay at ~42°C most of the time! I think this is the best investment I've done on the noise front, well before my silent power suply, the 2 so called silent Fan of my procs and the "silent" towers I tried previously!
Hope this helps...
