Actually, what matters eventually are the fans not the case. I often bought the cheap cases and replace their fans with ultra quiet double bearing fans (noise < 20 or 25db would be almost unnoticeable). neweggs and tigerdirect often have good deal for fans (but they charge for shipping). Compusa is another good place to go.

Use larger fans, make sure the case you pick as good air circulation, and get fans with either variable resistors or auto adjust. Look around on some case modding and over clocking sites and the like. Water cooling or the like may be good too. Or possibly a all around bigger heatsink. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
