I'm trying to get my setup as quiet as possible..... and the only thing I have left is the darn GPU HSF!!!! noisy little beggar!

Arctic Silencer?

well since your overclocking ur card like mad thats the only option

**dj_stick** · Jul 13, 2004, 01:52 PM

pretty sure thats the best option - apart from watercooling - which you said you didn't want just yet

The silencer is your best bet. The sucker really is silent, even on high

Thermalright SLK, 92 mm YSTECH 30db 50cfm fan. vantec stealth case fans.

not really enough room for that tbh - lol - I think my audigy 2 would get in the way... even though the a2 is in the most bottom pci slot..... the thermalright sp97 works really well on my cpu though

Just ordered an arctic cooler rev 3 and a thermaltake tsunami.... coupled with my new akasa psu and sp97 - I'm gonna have one kickass quiet system!

I may buy some ys-tech 2x 120mm and 1x 92mm fans though - it depends on what the thermaltake fans already in the case are like.
