Watercooling.
Still uses fans on the radiators but they are big
(120mm) and only turn at about 900rpm.

OR
Get a new case that will accomodate big, slow fans and
go crazy with your processor cooler.

Subject: [CGUYS] Shhh...
I am looking for advice on making my PC a little
quieter. I gather I
need to look at replacing my case fan and power
supply...? What do you
recommend that you have actually tried? (It's a Linux
box in case that
makes any difference.) TIA
