Quiet PC case - anyone bought?

Has anyone bought one of the Quiet PC cases (99 UK pounds) and if so, how well does it perform? Simon

Huh? There's a quiet pc case? Do you have a URL? Thanks, Rhett

Yes, it's So has anyone bought one? Simon

Hi, I haven't bought this case, but I did something different which may interest you. I took out all fans and installed an aqua-cooling system. I consist of a special heatsink for the cpu, norhtbridge, harddrives and the grafiksystem and an external radiator. By now the only fan is in the powersupply. The result? Temps are freezingly low (about 5 to 15 degrees above room temperature) and there is almost no noise left. The system is so quiet that recording in the same room is absolutely no problem. It took some time to install and it was not really cheap but worth it.

Don't believe they offer a case, but do have alot of stuff to quiet down what you already have. Would like to find out more about this Aqua= cooler that Diddledoe installed?

Quiet PC.com DO offer a case, as I said in my first post, look at the site to see it, it looks pretty good. yes I'd certainly be interested in the Aqua stuff too. Thanks Simon

Hi, there are several different systems available here in Germany and I guess there are also in the US. My system is from aqua-computer () which may not be the best but the support by their forum is exellent, even for those speaking English. The main systemvendors are (afaik): Aqua Computer () Cooling Solutions Innovacool Magnum Koolance All systems are more or less equal with regards to the cooling effects. The main difference is how the connectors for heatsink to flexible tube are desinged. Aqua-computer uses a so called plug'n-cool system which is not only durable but also easy to handle. Others take much more simple connectors. All vendors offer sets which are great for starting, but be warned! One easily gets addicted to low noise. Thats why I started with a basic set and quickly improved it with some harddrive coolers and so on. All systems work like this: Special heatsinks take all the heat and heat up the water within its circles. The water is then transported by an almost noisless waterpump to the radiator. The radiators look very much like the ones found in a car, but are much smaller. Being there the heat is taken away by the air streaming through the radiator. If your radiator is outside the pc-case no fans are necessary, if its inside 2 fans running (noisless) at 4,5 Volts are recommended. Most easy systems are the ones with the radiators outside and have also the best cooling results. Mine is outside my AMD Athlon 2000+ which makes my computer almost noisless. An Example: in the beginning I forgot to reinstall the system LED again to show that the computer is on. By accident my wife turned the computer off thinking it was already off and wanting to turn it on, because the screen saver was active and she did not hear anything.

I have used PC Power and Cooling power supplies and found their silencer line to be really quiet and reliable. Also the silencer fan is very quiet for an exhaust fan.

Could not find it, because Acousti-case is not pictured or even mentioned on the USA site. Guess I need to live in Europe to get the good stuff?
