Re: EPCN Fanless or Puget Serenity SCPR? (+processor advice)

Looks like we want nearly exactly the same things! Reading your thread (and even the mention of SC2) was like thinking out loud for me haha. Also, are those 1027's or 1028's? Either way, nice choice! Also couldn't help notice the Nordost in there. Heimdall, right? I use Tyr all the way through from ...

That's a good point. I am hesitant to do a lot of wireless stuff as I know this has an impact on electronics (however small it may be). I guess my pc doesn't have to be in the same room, but I'll need a longer HDMI cable at least, and how to sort out getting it out of sight. Cutting at walls is some...

EPCN Fanless or Puget Serenity SCPR? (+processor advice)

Hi everyone, I've spent the past few months doing a lot of reading about how to silence computers, and I think i've now narrowed it down to these two choices for myself.
