The PSU will end up being the loudest part of the computer, get a fan controller and turn down the fans when he needs it silent.

He needs it quiet the whole time its on, and the PSU is very quiet, enough to be ok

Well i have the system built, its just a little too much, if i stop the fan on the Q6600 and the GPU with my hand ( only for a second ) he said that is enough, so i know a pump can be very quiet as its a Silent dampening case, all i need is a fanless Rad thats fits the spec in my first post, a good Pump/res and a Q6600 Block and a 8600GT block
Please

What fan did you stop?
Fanless rads suck bad. Even a little airflow makes a massive difference. From my testing with a quad core radiator (it's 11.5x2x9 which is HUGE).... my temps climbed over 50C fanless. I just run some fans at like 900RPM and my temps drop like 10C. If he can hear 900RPM Yate Loons from 5ft away... he is lying. I have great hearing and I couldn't tell in a silent room. My HDs are much much much louder.

Not all PCs have to be gaming rigs. It could be used for video/graphics editting or science modeling.

Exactly, no gaming, mostly just so he wont have to upgrade for ages, and he wants HD-DVD stuff, hence the 8600gt

AAAA but if it where for that it would be mucher cheaper to go with a 8500,as that is what the 8500 is made for.

So was the 8600. Price difference isn't much either and the 8600 is more powerful especially when overclocked.

You will hit at least 60-70C if under full load after an hour. A stock CPU... with a 105-130w TDP plus a GPU with a TDP of 30-50w.
I have two res for sale. One is a 5.25" bay res. The other is a modded Swiftech res for inline setups.
