o... if you're set up in the "typical" pull style, put a baffle over the rad opening, spaced, say, so there's a 1" space between the foam and the rad - and put a 1" foam panel on the baffle. Higher frequencies are pretty "beamy" and won't go around the baffle - and you're attenuating whatever might reflect out.
Sounds kind of like the intake setup in by lian-li 6070 case. The baffel is more like 1/2" from the rad intake. Personally, I think it is too restrictive of airflow, but simple design changes could help this. I replaced the stock 8cm fans with 92mm fans (panaflow L1s) undervolted to 9v. I am still yet to hear them. Very effective design.
