What you should be doing is telling people to buy good PSU's not the cheapest thing they can find with the biggest wattage sticker. It's fine to recommend what you've seen works, but if you don't have a clue why it works you should tell people that too. I bet most of the people you give advise actu...

I only listed parts in my article that I had personal experience with. That is why I only listed that one PSU. I have not had experience with the ones that SPCR has tested. My article was based, solely, on my own experience. StorageReview's noise measuring techique is described in detail, here: http...

I, too, am looking for the quietest 120mm fan I can find. I'm willing to use a rheobus. I just need suggestions for which fans to buy, preferably cheap ones.

www.overclockers.com has posted an article called "Step-by-Step: Building a Quiet PC From The Ground Up" by Chris McQuistion , the 2nd article in a series of 3 on building a quiet AMD dualie. This installment and the original are both good, though nothing new for anyone who has read a few articles ...

Cmcquistion, I think you may be being alittle too sensitive. I think the reaction here was overall pretty positive: Perhaps I am. I've just been harassed by several members here, in the forum, at overclockers, and by email, about my articles. I wasn't only referring to this thread, but also this on...

Nice to know I can have my work crapped on universally... *EDIT* This is a little harsh language. I got too defensive, here, starting with this post.
