hey you guys,
i have a silverstone ft02 with a window and its great, it keeps all my components really cool and i am surprised at actually how little dust is inside of it( keep in mind though, i clean it maybe every 2 or 3 weeks). however, since the computer is on my desk and is about 2 or 3 feet away from me, i can hear the fans whizzing around in there. i've tried all i can think of to keep it quiet:
replaced both 6870's stock fans with gelid icy vision rev.2 for quiet cooling there,
i5 2500k has hyper 212+ with push/pull on it(don't know if this keeps it quiet).
i have set the bottom 3 fans to high though(i don't really want to change this either, since i really do like how my case is really cold). is there anything else i can do to make it quieter without spending to much money?
when i place my ear to the case i think i hear most of the noise coming from the single fan at the top of the case, should i replace it?
thanks
