I have a typical “beige box” computer in my living room, whirring away happily. It used to be really loud, but I splurged and bought an $18 Noise Killer kit from Circuit City to make it quiter. The kit consists of a few slicone rubber gaskets for the power supply, some screws with the same kind of rubber bushings and washers. Only 4 of the screws were threaded and sized correctly, I had to work the washers off of them and used the existing mounting screws. It only took about 20 mins to unattach the power supply, the fan on the processor, reattach everything and replace the washers on the hard drives. I was kinda skeptical, and I didn’t think it would quiet down as much as it did. Now I can stand having the machine on. I recommend the process to anyone with a noisy box.
