Absolutely, my current tower is one noisy SOB, between the fans and HD's, it drives me crazy, when i shut down the pc at night, the noise in my room dies down instantly. I've chosen most parts, let's see if i can copy n paste all the info over. So far this is what i have chosen, looks like i'll have to look for a video card elsewhere, i'm pretty much looking to buy a radeon 9500.
