My small apartment-friendly rig

My system uses the same components as my previous system. Only the case and suspension system has changed.

My previous built (my thoughts about the components can also be read in this link):

CPU: AMD Athlon II x3 425
CPU Cooler: Arctic Cooling Alpine 64 Pro @ ~700 rpm
Motherboard: ASUS M4A88TD-m EVO/USB3
GPU: Powercolor Radeon 5750 SCS3 (passive, but Scythe Slipstream 800rpm @6-7V strapped on w. zip ties

PSU: Corsair CX400W (fan-swap, Scythe Slipstream 800 rpm @6-7 V
