I have an EPIA-m9000 in a travla 137. ok, so I have a disk and a dvd in
there, but even taking that into account it is far from silent. The cpu fan
makes a hell of a din. As for the case fan. They are both way too loud for
me and I'm really rather deaf.
So the question is; how did you make it silent? I did have a homebuilt case
with no fans at all (ZALMAN VGA heatsink on the CPU), but it got too hot for
my liking. Please, please, please tell me the secret!
Regards
