Beginning Of the End For PC Noise

Posted by Hemos on from the ah-the-quiet-machine dept.

An anonymous reader writes "If you work around computers a lot you are probably pretty tired of the noise they produce. The cutting down on computer noise has grown from the pet-peeve of a few people to a major segment of the hardware industry. If you are looking to cut down on noise there are a lot of ways to go, but one of the easiest and most effect is to upgrade to a silent power supply. This guide goes over and tests the four most popular ones on the market right now." A few years back, I had also written a piece about making silent machine as well. Any other hints from people?

    I wish Slashdot editors would not post stories that are really advertisements. Is there corruption among Slashdot editors? Are some of them accepting money secretly?

    Any solution that is extremely expensive is not really a solution. Antec, in my opinion, is a mediocre manufacturer that exploits the weaknesses of those whose self-esteem is attached to having computer hardware.

    "Add revenue"???

    And by the way, "Mike" is a whore who can't "right" and clearly knows very little about power supplies. Get your nose out of his ass crack.
