So, how's the noise? Very interested in hearing (no pun intended) about that experience.
I can't even hear it. Well, then again all my fans are on low. Setting them on high though they are really noticeable but I think there is no point to setting them on high because on low they dropped my temps, like 8 degrees.

what graphics card u got ^
A pretty ghetto one right now. It's a Sapphire X1650 Pro and I got it on newegg for 85$ on sale. I am waiting for the R600 cards to come out before I use a good chunk of change for a good graphics card. In 3 weeks they are supposed to debut.... can't wait! I am planning on getting the mid range ones that will sell for like $300-50.

How?
My friend works at Microsoft, and he said I could buy it at the Microsoft Employee Store.

I almost got it for free because Microsoft held an event on our campus and gave 15 Vista Ultimates out in a raffle (one number off...)
