When my fans are running at low rpms and I'm not playing games, yes very quiet - even the gpu.  Once things get more intensive, things get louder but never "loud".

SPCR is definitely a great place to start of reading up on silent computing.  Lots of simple and inexpensive mods can make a huge difference.

I have seen that picture quite a few times outside of the forums. In fact, a friend of mine not into headphones posted it one Facebook once.
It makes me feel so proud of this forum, somehow.

^^ Did you build that beauty? Drooling over that. Can it run Solitaire and Facebook on ultra? 

 
Are you going to upgrade the video card to Kepler or are you going to keep it as it is? Also, dat cable management.
 
EDIT: Seriously dude get a mechanical keyboard, exactly WHAT are you waiting for?

 

[Deep1923]

First of all thx for your feedback and yes I built it. I had already kepler. it is too slow. for my gaming style. low minimum fps. average and maximum fps are not relevant for a fluid gameplay. Moreover, I dont liked the optics of the 680gtx.
I'm waiting for non-reference models of the 680gtx.
I previously had a asus 580 gtx matrix sli team. I sold it for Kepler. Now I've bought the 590 GTX for the next 1-2 months. as a bypass. It has enough power.

I had a mechanical keyboard. steelseries 6g v2

I am very satisfied with the x4 in combination with IE3.0

Swapped out some fans and changed a few minor things.  Now it is completely silent!!! 

 

 
That is a Thermalright TY-140 and Scythe Gentle Typhoon AP-15 on my Noctua NH-D14.  I say it does as good as a job as the stock fans but are much quieter.

Now it is completely silent!!!  :bigsmile_face:

Perfect!
