I was talking about palmboy5. Anyways, some people have told me the fans by Vantec are louder than their vacuum.

Yeah I know. 50 or 60 dBA isn't exactly quiet... If I got one of those I'd only use it if my system started getting really hot and I couldn't cool it down. This case only has space for 1 80mm fan in the rear and I already put one in it. It's not real quiet or anything, but it keeps it from crashin' all the time.

You can just blow a house fan into it, which is probably gonna be just as loud if not quieter than the Vantec Tornado, AND only about $10 more (if you want a good one). And they're like... 10,000 CFM (well, mine is)

Well just say, what would you possible use 10K CFM in a computer for?


And it would make a lot more sense to use liquid cooling considering that liquid can dissipate heat far better than air.
