    It really depends on the fans and those in the PSU, on the CPU and grahics card! As it stands, a case on its own has little relevance to noise output!

    ok guys, try not to take the p*ss. You all know what i mean, i'm talking about the fans that come installed with the case. Are THEY noisey?

    well, don't know if this might help but when i had the original fans in my PC7, the intakes weren't nearly as loud as my thermaltakes now

    theyre probably evercools or equivalent spinning at the same RMPs - so i'd say quiet :)

    i run 3 YsTech 80mms in my case, and they're quiet, even though they're ~38CFM fans.

    the ones in my PC 65 were Adda fans, about 30cfm, about the same as evercools. they ain't very noisy and the front 2 intake fans are wired upto a switch for low med and high power, on low they are really quiet, my case is pretty loud now but i have 1x evercool 80mm in the PSU, a 60mm Sunon on hs, some 40mm cear thing on the mobo chipset along with the 3 pre installed fans and the intakes on top speed, not too bad though :)

    I've got all the stock fans in my PC60, with the front intakes on high, and somone on the boards told me it sounded it like a Jet Fighter!:eeek: :D

    I'm sure he was only joking, though.

    I don't have a problem with the noise it generates, but if it's too loud you do have the option of lowering the speed with the switch under the front bezel of the case.

    Hey the ADDA fans that are in there are decent fans. They aren't to bad noise wise. Also considering that i have a Delta 80mm fan in there, Maybe my opinion doesn't count. I changed out the Addas for Enermax fans. Cooler and a little better performance. Gotta love the clear blades w/ Lazer LEDs behind them.

    T[H]anks.

    you could always get a baybus so you can control the fans.

    I changed my fans to evercools in my pc60USB and have no quarral with them at all, i can hear the annoying scream from my Taisol 60mm on the CPU though even with the sides on which most of the time they're not. I only changed the fans originally as i had a loada evercools and to be honest, the original ones are fine.
