The amount of noise & CPU temp are sadly inversly proportionate to each other, it's certain fans are dependant on your CPU core speed, and higher temps reduce the life of your CPU..
 
Hoever there are a few other things you can do to reduce temperature on your CPU. Improving airflow by getting rounded drive cables & packing all lose poer cables nicely away increase airflow, also getting low RPM fans that at like an intake at the front and exhaust at the rear can greatly reduce the need for a high RPM fan on your CPU.
 
When you do get a fan for your CPU make sure it has a variable speed control so you can adjust the noise level to how you want it.
 
Also go to download.com and grab a CPU temperaure monitor so you can monitor your settings while you are performing CPU intensive tasks.

Hi,
 
Just saw on the SOS website about a company who make silent fans for PC cases...they are called Kool & Quiet, but I wondered if anyone had fitted superquiet fans to their PCs.
 
Any recommendations cos mine is way noisy and I have seen ones for �10 on this website. I don;t want to undercool my PC and damage it so I just wondered what the minimum airflow is for a normal tower case (if this is a daft pointless question ignore it).
 
Is there a standard case fan size or do i need to measure it??
 
Cheers for the info,
 
Laters
 
Dan
