quick question...how does water cooling the prodigy compare to that of other matx/itx cases - mainly concerning temps/noise? i'm thinking about doing a small build (...

from what i've read, there are silent pumps (though not necessarily on all settings), there are silent fans, and there are radiators that compliment those fans...but can they pull of what want them to? Quote:Originally Posted by Del...

yeah i know completely silent is unrealistic. to be a little more accurate, what i want is to not be able to hear it above ambient noise at night, from 5 feet away...not sure how much that changes things though lol the reason i'm...
