Anything below that floor will essentially disappear (sort-of - depends on frequencies and some other stuff).

OMG
I did write my last post in a rush, and when I was looking at your quote I was quite positive that you referred to my pump mount and anechoic foam block "floor" of the pump and on this fact I based my "floor" story extension, later on. Then I spotted your comments about the winter and deep snow and it was like ... well something is not right. It was too late. Unbelievable
Anyhow, yes, your are right about the noise floor. We have many factors, influencing the final perception level or the floor of the noise. Time of the day, near by noise or ambient noise and the way how it's related to PC noise, room "structure", type of the furniture, type of the floor ...and so on and so on. As I already explained, my "acoustic" room situation is good example. On couple of occasions when I had to bring my home PC to the office, I was pretty much in disbelief that after initial power on I was questioning myself: "is it really ON ?!".
Sorry for going OT.
