i got ears to do so.
I have to agree on this one with Eskro.... because I have tested and I know for sure what keeps cooler and less noise to me.
I still don't understand why you guys have your HTPC out in plain view. Just hide it in a closet or cabinet. If this is a "Home Theater PC", then make it like a theater, and hide your gear. You should only see a screen and MAYBE some speakers. If your gear is tucked away properly, noise is a non-factor. Although, cooling becomes more important. My stock fan is doing the job for cooling, though.
Nice thread, beer! Your HTPC is awesome! If anyone with a $400 budget asks, I link them to this thread right here.
LOL I love to see my HTPC box.... it's beautiful.... maybe when I get rich and get a room just for my theater.... then I might rethink about it! But the only thing in the closet now its my server..... cool thanx for linking.... (maybe if the case was ugly then i'll hide it).....
