Actualy sn1per the fans on top are not that noisy even if you kick in mode 3 , thats when infact all 3 top fans kick in .It has never actually got that warm for that to happen automatically.Agreed not the lowest temps around but not as awefull as most believe either. My case is loaded and case temp is , as I write this is only 2C over ambient (monitored with digidoc). I have though modded the case and put a 120mm panaflo L1A in the front and have 2 80mm panaflo L1A in the rear for exhaust .There is of course some sound but really it is a pleasant exspeariance , more like a low humm, hardly noticeable.In fact the noisiest thing i have is the damm UPS fan,it has a nasty pitch to it wich of course i willl deal with very soon.I have to add though if I were to do it again I would have gone the Q power way, but hey I made my choice and will live with it .
