Re: 0 db gaming rig achieved

Hello!

Very nice rig, what are the temps? I understand, that during gaming the gpu fan goes into high rpm and You're wearing headphones so You can't hear it? If You play very little, wouldn't it be better if You just use the integrated graphics from CPU?

Thanks for the reply. I'm looking forward to the end result, any other rack equipment like UPS or switch etc? Additionally, if You will have a very good quality of the cuts and all the pieces will fit each other quite nice, the placing of the fans will be irrelevant. The biggest pain is that Scythe ...

Re: Silent Rackmount PC Build

Hello

Very nice project, i like rack mounted pcs myself ;) One question - do You really need two optical drives and a floppy drive? do You use them or is it just a case of option-proofing because You make Your own case?

Very, very nice build.

Isn't the mounting under the desk affecting the temperatures?
