Lightbulb Cosmos 1000 Airflow Solution!
I want to build rig with low noise and yet acceptable airflow.
This is my minor Cosmos 1000 mod:

Cosmos 1000 Airflow Solution!-cosmos-af.jpg

I have found the way to install fourth CM fan into VGA AIRDUCT as you can see on the pic marked with *.

I might go with single panaflo 120x38mm ultra quite for the megahalem but this is it for now. It is pretty much quite and has a good airflow without dead spots.
I am thinking to drill a 140mm hole on the door, in front that 5.25" bays, but I don't have tools and that hole saw yet
My configuration is in my sig.
You are welcome with any comments and suggestions...
Thanx

EDIT:
I have new solution:


Cosmos 1000 Airflow Solution!-new-fan.png

If anybody know CFM for ATI 5870 that would be nice.
Thanx

That's actually a nice way to alleviate the lack of airflow in that case. Good stuff.

9 fans....
Even if you have low speed 20db fans, You're looking at a combined 35+db which is far from silent.

I'd suggest lots of sound deadening. Either spray on rubberized car undercoating, or some heavy sound dampening foam from some place like Partsexpress.com

To be honest, I have tried them and they are really quiet. All together less than 30dB. The only thing that I hear when the side is open is that s-flex on megahalems and that is just hum. Trust me I have researched this for a long time

Thanx

I bought this drill bit from Harbor Freight and it was very easy.

I am using Antec Tri Cool leds on medium setting.
