Default Ah, peace and quiet
Finally my computer is quiet. I had put in a watercooling system a while back, and then I got a new power supply. The fan in the psu was loud as heck, so an hour ago I cut it out and replaced it with a different fan on my fan controller. Now my computer is finally quiet. The only thing I can still hear is the water pump, but i'm not that picky. lol

Grats mth91 on the silent PC. My problem is the other way around. My PSU is nice and quite, wish I could say the same for my case fans.

lol. I'm actually surprised I can hear the water pump. It's supposed to be one of the quietest around. I also hear my kaze's clicking, but that doesn't really matter much to me.
