Anyone have experience with HP Slimline's? Noisy!!!

Post by gocchin » Tue Jun 03, 2008 6:14 am

So Best Buy had this deal on the HP Slimline s3407C

X2 4800+
2gb Ram
500gb SATA drive
Integrated 6150SE Video
DVD Burner
HP W2007 20" Widescreen LCD

for $549.00

I grabbed one for my wife.

For my wife, it's an adequate PC but the noise bugs the heck out of me.

It's got an integrated card so it's the CPU fan and the PSU fan....

Anyone switch out the CPU fan in any of these new Slimlines?

Seems like the consensus around the web is that these were NOT built for silence... only size.

As always any advice is appreciated. (^_^)
