P.S. can i be added to the regular CM690 list... have one for 3 mnths now, and am still waiting for the UV paint to finish it up... don't want to reveal it until it's all done... Accelero S1 rev2 should be here soon too
quiet is a relative term, but once you get into 'silent' or ultra quiet computers and noise dampening etc, the CM fans are horrible. I wouldn't say they are quiet to begin with, not if you compare to Yate Loon or Scythe Medium speed or low speed fans. Now, compare the CM to a so called 'quiet' Thermaltake and you have a valid point

OFC, but you can't expect a fan to be quiet when the air goes through a honeycomb, plastic mesh and metal mesh... too much interference for them to be quiet

I agree Scythe, Yate and Silverstone are quieter, but what would you expect from a 3-4$ fan?
For most of the people running gaming rigs on their desktop CM's are quiet enough

Paintjob, cable managment, few neons... i ran into some problems with the stealthy dvd mod since i can't get small enough screws to do what i planned... but i'll try and resolve that until i get the UV paint... but i doubt Accelero S1 will be here before January 09'... will see tho..

More pics of my rig again. Made some small changes, added some cold cathodes, fans grills, made a template for the front intake fans to make them perfectly circle and took off the front Cooler Master logo. I'm getting tired of how the led fans look so I have some non-led yates coming next week(the front led fans are staying).

So i've been working on my setup. Here is what my fan controller looked like.
And the finished product. I'll have more pictures of the inside of my case when i'm done with everything. Still haven't received my Arctic Cooling Accelero S1 Rev. 2's for my 3870's. Let me know what you guys think.

Yeah, I really like the fan controller and all the features, but the lights on the front got really annoying. They would almost strobe a bright blue when turned up to high. I am really happy with how it turned out.

I'm still working on silencing the computer and de-leding it. I'll keep everyone posted.
