I can only suggest talk to Carters about soundproof Gib-board + sound-proof "pink" batts. The sound proof batts are actually green and they work best if used with soundproof Gib.
Actually, a friend of mine who played the drums used to have a music room where the walls were completely covered with egg cartons. Supposedly absorbed the noise. A more geeky solution would be to alter the fans so they all spin at a different speed, so you don't get the sound waves reinforcing.

I have a small render farm, which by virtue of tight deadlines runs permanently, more or less. As PCs get more powerful, so they have become noisier. Recently, the hums generated seem to be *almost* reinforcing each other creating an unsubtle low-frequency droning that can be hard from the bedroom. A stethescope reveals that no one PC is responsible. So, I wonder, what are the options for quiet PCs these days? I have the sneaking suspicion that the answer is "not much" and all the gear is going to have to go in an armour-plated shed. Even then I'll want quiet workstations. It could get very, very pricey and that's bad news right now.
