My Silent PC (Watercooled and damped, lots of pics)
Posted: Sun Aug 22, 2004 6:44 am
Okay... Here is my main rig, which I have been silencing for a while now. Currently the noisiest thing is my 2x Seagate 160gb harddisks, which I may watercool and dampen later on, if they bother me too much.
Oh and yes, I did spray paint the CD/DVD drive myself, I'm actually quite glad the way it turned out.
