About getting your machine more quiet. Normally the main source of
sound are the ventilators and sometimes the harddrive. You can buy
quiet fans and powerunits. In general the bigger the fan the quieter.
Also bios programm's like cool and quiet (AMD) can help. They keep the
fans at minimum speed. You need a 4 wire connection to your fan to
manage the speed and your motherboard needs to have such connectors.
Often it only has for the processor fan. In a lot of biosses you can
manage the profile used. Keep the ventilation openings of the computer
well free for a better airflow. Your fans then can spindown further.
You can also look inside if all wiring is properly laid aside, so not
to hinder the flow.
