> is yours loud, or are you looking for "very quiet"?

Hello Ken, Eric

Thanks for the information. Yes I am looking at one of these "case modding" style PC ATX power supplies which claim to provide similar ventilation but at very low noise levels.

I used to be able to leave computers running over night but since we had a baby the noise is just too much as her room is right below my "attic lab". The Ultra 5 I have is rather noisy and still makes quite a racket even after a good cleaning. Having said that it's quieter than my G5!

I'm going to investigate my local PC "hot rodding" shop over the weekend and I will report any progress I make. Hopefully they won't try and sell me green neon tubes to go inside the case!

Best regards
