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?

Don't be offtopic! Processor may run efficiently or not, Your OS may swap a lot or not. That's not the point.

It's like comparing apples to oranges. Or "to reduce gas consumption replace your SUV with Prius".

And you forgot to say something like "buy Mac".

My 200mhz arm in my zaurus decodes divx just fine. ARM proccessors are in virtually all the handheld computers now, mostly XScales, but they're still based on the arm cores.
