:o Have not bough the stuff to convert vhs to divx or anything like that :) After looking over my pc spending I decided to put a hold on anything that relates to computers for awhile!!! :nod: Except as soon as I can get the 2800+ that will be my last purchase for this system I think... then wait 1.5 years and start all over again hehehe :) Also all of my stuff was purchased at various times from around May until now.

i think im gonna wait till the summer then buy a laptop for university

a tablet pc perhaps...

also right now, im planning to get the Vantec VA4-C7040 to cool my athlon

i cant stand this delta fan anymore
living with 59dBA is driving me nuts
the TMD fan will give 38dbA which everyone can live with
thats why im planning on getting it
and it is cheap too
about 26 USD at coolerguys

:rolleyes: turn up the music dood :)

Right on! When I cut on my rear channel(those three 6" woffers, etc...) I completely forget about all my fans in my computer :lol:

Just turn up the volume!

i forget about the noise most of the time

but sometimes i have to work without loud music because i live in an apartment

so loud noise is not acceptable

do u guys think this is worth it?

Hmm...good point. I too get complaints about my system...when the downstairs starts vibrating :lol: I live in a house, but that dosn't mean loud noise is acceptable...

Well, for me, fan noise isn't too bad. I'm rather used to it. My server and main computer use the same, loud HS, and both are on almost 24/7. If it where my decision, I'd look around for a more efficient HS.

the reason im looking into the Vantec's VA4-7040 is because it is quiet yet very efficient and its performance ties with the CoolerMaster HCC-001

What about other fans? Will it really matter how quite your processor fan is if you have so many other fans?

they are fairly quiet too

i dont have any loud fans in my case except the deltan fan for the HS
