(last news, they're getting an anechoic chamber to do noise measurements !!!)
NBM Tech, PAPST are the best compromise. PAPST fans are a bit more expensive out here, but quality comes at a price...

My only next option is to get some of the noise dampening matrial that you stick to the inside of your case and put it everywhere, although I dunno how much good that will do considering I have a window.

The best method to silence things is:
- buy elements which are *already* silent
- decouple them, to avoid noise propagation
- insulate them (in the case of HDDs)
- get rid of fans !
