There are 3.5mm sockets for use in cases etc, for example I found one at Maplin (UK electronics/electrics shop) after 4 min googling http://www.maplin.co.uk/products/module.asp?CartID=031014163917308&moduleno=1189&Products=1 ... So drill a hole, mount this. wire it through the case out and onto your...

ashtray_head and MrMajestic - In the end I didn't go for the 6070 case for a few reasons; - price, the lower price of the 3700BQE I got allowed me an extra HDD - airflow, I was worried that airflow wouldn't be enough and too insecure in my modding skills to attempt the above mod - case material, IM...

Just wanted to let you know that Ive had no problems whatsoever popping out the rubber case fan mounts and refitting them to different fans (tried the stock fan, then an old no-name (yech!) and now they're on my Papst 4212 L). With a bit of care as Ralf mentioned there should be no problems reusing ...

tool-less designs good for silence?
I'm still trying to decide on a case (looking at the CoolerMaster ATCS-710, LianLi PC6070, Antec3700AMB/BQE/Sonata and FongKai 330), and started wondering about the new case designs and the focus on screwless designs: The question is : surely using drive rails for 5.25" devices, clips for PCI cards ...

Tjena TobiWan,
Här har du några svenska siter med silent prylar:
www.whynoi.se
www.gtek.se
www.overclockers.se
www.pyrotech.se
kylning.com
de verkar dock nästan alla ha samma sortiment...
men vilka som är bäst får du fråga experterna om - jag försöker själv hitta välja en!

well that didn't sound so good...
Any direct experience with the 3500 out there?
Anyone know where I can get the Seasonic Super Silencer 400 (the proper SS400-AGX version, not kool'n'quiet's SS-400FS version) in the UK?

hi pdf27, Thanks for the link - though I'd seen that one before: Apparently (And correct me if Im wrong) that is NOT the highly rated Super Silencer but a more generic PSU. The Super Silencer as reviewed by this site has the model designation SS-400AGX (the one on kool'n'quiet is the SS-400FS). Anyo...

Opinions on Nexus NX3500 PSU?
Hiya, I'm looking at trying to find a Seasonic Super Silencer 400 PSU in the UK, but now also found this Nexus NX3500 . Anyone have any opinions on the Nexus and its relative merits against the highly rated Seasonic? (I kind of like the idea of a 120 mm PSU - but if the Seasonic is quieter and I can...

Thanks for the input Bluefront! I'm gonna give the PC 6070 a try, and start with the 2x80mm holes in the rear and the hole + filter in the floor, then maybe add a muffler to the intake, and only if my HDD temps need it a fan to said muffler. I think (hope!) this case is gonna work out. I'm planning ...

Hey Ralf, thanks for helping figure this out! I'm really set on the PC 6070 as I really like the look, and am more and more prepared to mod it to make a silent case rather than settle for an uglier case that is silent from scratch. (but I am prepared to eat my words and go for something else if its ...

I agree on the rear ventilation - but as mentioned above I plan to punch out the existing grill and cut a hole for a new one below it - giving me space for two nice and quiet papst or panaflo fans. I would probably even experiment with having one of them dedicated to the CPU (some sort of ducting to...

Trip - about your Belgium/Singapore comparison - its a little off whack: Singapore is a city-state of approx 693 sqkm (thats less than 1/5 the size of Miami-Dade county, and almost exactly the same size as the City of New York - the five boroughs) and a population of 4.6 million. Belgium is a count...

Now THAT is a quiet case
Don't know if most of you have seen this but it impressed me no end. The sound measurements seem very good (apparently done in a dolby lab studio, 5dBA ambient) and 14dBA is just astounding! Bit thin on the specs, but based on the pictures its a high end P4, Seagate Barracuda V drive, high-end gfx c...
