Modern very quiet computer
I'm tired of the noise from under the table from the system unit. In reality, sometimes you don’t want to sit at the computer just because extra decibels terrorize the mind. A laptop would solve this problem, especially on the basis of quiet energy-saving solutions like the modern Pentium, but I prefer a powerful system builder.
I now have no top, rather old configuration, but its performance suits me well:
Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 2.93GHz
8GB DDR3 SDRAM
2TB HDD Seagate 5900 Green
I made my computer work silently with small investments.

Consider separately all the noisy nodes of the system unit, such as:
Immediately running ahead, I will say that water cooling in this article is not considered.
With a video card, everything is simple, there are very few offers with passive cooling for sale. Let's go over them.

I use this very cost-effective solution, not too good, but cheap. For users who do not like to spend time in complex 3D games, this option is quite suitable.

The most "evil" lot prepared by fans of ATi Radeon. This card is able to break any modern toy, and “quietly” (“without noise and dust”).

This cooler fits absolutely on any "home" socket. It’s natural not to stick it into the server 1U case, but for the house it’s a very good option!
On my Core 2 Duo E7500 2.9Ghz, the temperature at standard load (movies, torrents, programming) does not exceed 36 degrees. In toys it grows to 45. According to the processor specification, its normal operation will end at 72 degrees - draw conclusions.

Either we put up with our block (mine, for example, turned out to be very quiet and I did not change it), or put something like this:
Such a pleasure also costs money, in the region of 4,000 rubles.
Case fan, for example, can be turned off, or a low-noise 7-8 dB solution can be purchased, such as the Noctua NF-S12B FLX :
This fan will delight you with its silence, and will last a long time without lubrication, unlike cheap Chinese coolers for 100 rubles. The price of such Noctua is an average of 720 rubles.
