Silence, to me is having the blowers below 30 db. That's good enough, and if I insulate the radbox with some sound dampening foam it'll be even better. I should find good blowers that are strong enough to blow through a double heatercore efficiently at 30 db right?
Another thing that might be worth considering is that the radbox will sit aprox 3 metres away from me, but the computer only 1.5 metres or so. That means that the computer components needs to be more quiet then the radbox as they will be more noticable.
Why only one rad? I'll have 4 harddrives, A64 3400+ @ 2700mhz, overclocked 6800, and a NB in the loop. Wouldn't a 2:nd one yeld better temps, and thus allowing for lower speed on the blowers?
Thanks for all the input guys?
