Mostly, the trick is to have the largest radiator possible as it requires less fannage to achieve the same cooling performance. I use the bonneville heatercore with 2 evercool aluminum fans @7v. I have a whitewater block which works great for the money I paid for it. The mag 3 is overall very quiet, but because of the vibration from my crappy aluminum case it seems somewhat louder than it is. When I pick it up and hold it in my hand, it is almost totally silent.
