well, i'm not saying you nosboost
but people recommending a 690 for SILENCE?
and tech forums just isn't a silence oriented community. I find they're TF is a lot more into ricier/flashier/louder computers than other communities : obviously there are exceptions though.
have you heard the cm-690 with its stock 3 fans? its pretty darn silent and i think it actually has better cooling than the antec p series...
The 3 fans have a rating of 21dba with 1200rpm which isnt bad at all.
its great for the price, but if you got more cash to spare then they are better choices.
