Thanks for the replies everyone. My main noise is coil whine and fan noise. I know the 80mm fans that came with the case aren't great so I'm looking for some better ones but I also think the grills are part of the problem too. I'm working on solving that noise as well but I figured a better case wou...

Should I try to quiet current case or just get a better one?

I'm looking to quiet the noise and I'm wondering if it would be better to get a new case than trying to quiet my current one.

I have had some luck placing a towel on the side of the case and it helped with the whine. So I figured i...

Mr_Smartepants,

Thank you very much for the reply. I'm not too crazy about that stuff in the post you linked. I'll keep looking around.

Case dampening material for very high frequencies

Hello everyone. I recently found this site/forum and it looks like there is lots of great information and people here. I am beginning a search for some sound dampening material and looking for some advice. My motherboard has that horrible coil whine and my tower is right up at ear level so its reall...
