Exactly. If you want quiet and don't care about cold temps, use a passive rad, or 5V your fans, or just use a huge reservoir and no fans.

If you want cold temps, you need two water loops. I suppose it could be done with air-cooled pelts, but i bet you would need at least 5 or 6, and then you have to have fans to cool the hot side of you pelts anyway, so you might as well just use a radiator (much more economic).
