actuallyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy....... a silent casing depends more on the contents of its internals rather than the design itself...

i suggest u find a case that has 120mm fans for intake and exhaust. as for choices....

personally, i like the aerocool baydream.... a BTX style case...RM300 in ALL IT

like i said.... aerocool baydream biggrin.gif i just love that case...heheheh

as for sound dampening... u could get the akasa paxmate from elhh or rlhh.

either that or u can go to car accesory shops and ask them for it...they can sell to u... no need until USA all....but the cheapo ones are kinda thick... expensive ones are expensive... best to check with the audio installers on ur best option and budget

i think devolting would be a very good option. i personally do it to my case...

i have LOUD fans running in my case (120mm Delta FFB and 80mm Delta FFB + 3 other LOUD fans) and i connected them to 2 12V/5V switches that i made. i always switch them to 5v when i sleep and that helps me sleep at night biggrin.gif

if u want a constantly quiet case, then i suggest running the fans at 7v all the time... and that really isnt hard to do. i wouldnt recommend running them at a constant 5v, coz thatll just be too slow. especially if ur using quiet, low cfm fans.
