Hi friends,
I have a new idea for fanless PC :
Like Heatsink, PSU, Case, etc.
For Heatsink, they are a Thermalright HR-O2 . This is a really pasive.
But now I have a Noctua NH-D14 and a OCZ Vendetta 2. I do not install a fan on HeatSink.
I do not have a problem.
PSU:
Seasonic X-Series Fanless 400W . Is the best passive PSU. But it is not very powerful.
Model: X-460 FANLESS (SS-460FL Active PFC F3)
Tips : add a second X-460 in tower. One for CPU and one Graphic Card. And a second for other Graphic Card.
http://www.silentpcreview.com/Seasonic_X-400_Fanless_PSU
But l have in my home (in the box) Corsair TX950W.
I begin with this PSU.
For Case:
Cooler Master ATCS 840
http://www.coolermaster.com/product.php?product_id=5777
PSU could be mounted on top or bottom for flexible installation or dual PSU configuration
I remove each fan and make a test with a OCCT and other soft. For check a temp.
Maybe add a fan after test.
For new motherboard :
A gigabyte product ... why not :P
GA-Z68MX-UD2H-B3 (rev. 1.3) or

Interesting project GG
There are a couple of components that might be better than what you have suggested though the Nesteq ASM X heatpipe semi fanless PSU and the NoFan CR95C Icepipe CPU cooler
-
Hi Dark Mantis, :D
Tanks for comments. :P
As I said above, I'll start with the psu (TX950W Corsair) and heatsink (Noctua NH-D14) I have already in my home.
But that's great that members, like you particularly ::), but without excluding anyone, leave their opinions and suggestions.
Especially if I need to change parts after the temperatures and sounds tests.

;) Hi friends, :D
In the CPU support List of:
GA-Q67M-D2H-B3 (rev. 1.0)
http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=3824
GA-Z68MX-UD2H-B3 (rev. 1.3)
http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=3974
I do not find a Intel XEON CPU like :
E3-1225
E3-1245 and
E3-1275
Link here on Intel site : http://ark.intel.com/compare/52274,52270,52277
See page 21, figure 3.3
http://www.intel.com/content/dam/doc/design-guide/xeon-e3-1200-lga1155-socket-specifications-and-guidelines.pdf
See page 25, figure 3.7
http://www.intel.com/content/dam/doc/guide/2nd-gen-core-lga1155-socket-guide.pdf
This CPU have a process 32nm and use a Sockets 1155 like a processors in the CPU support List

Hi Friends,
I find a material for reduce sound and vibration on the side panel.
Dynamat Xtreme Wedge Pak
http://www.dynamat.com/products_car_audio_wedge_pak.html
(http://i.ebayimg.com/t/10425-Dynamat-XTREME-Plain-Pak-Wedge-4-Sq-Ft-NEW-/17/!BvePN4QBmk~$%28KGrHqV,!iMEv1+0CvSYBMEt-c5IB!~~_12.JPG)
It's not thick like this: http://www.soundservice.co.uk/acoustic-wedge-tiles.html
It is an one (1) inch thick.
Have you a comments?

Interesting read and actually something that was on my mind for a totally different reason recently. I would steer clear of anything that has a metal backing sheet on it though for obvious reasons. The "rubber" foam style of matting seems cool though.
-
If we are building a PC to be as quiet as possible this might help but, without fans in the system to shift the air would this not also act to retain heat in the PC Case?

Hi Dark Mantis,
Thank you for this comments ... if I give ideas for other projects you have, it makes me happy.
It is not easy to find inexpensive materials and capable also be used for any other purpose.
The acoutic materials for pc is expensive and little pakage. Or is more difficulty for find it in shop.

To prevent loss of materials and money, I prefer not specialized materials.

Hi Absic, ;)
I'm not saying (thinking) that there will be no ventilation.
I say as there are tests and that I will see how to ensure that there is the least noise.
The testing will determine which fans will be active and the others I think to remove them.
I will place a thermometer with one external sensor, such as the picture.
(http://images.thesource.ca/images/Online/63/6311017l.jpg)
Of course, my computer with software give to me a infos about temperature....

I would suggest using the largest slowest fans that you can find. That way they should shift an enormous amount of air whilst turning very slowly and quietly. The 230mm ones that I have got seem to fit the bill well .
-
Hi Dark Mantis, ;)
I support this option.
I already have a 200mm fan on the Antec Nine Hundred for the GA-P35-DQ6.
So to follow.
Cool ;D

Hi Gloup_Gloup
Did you have a question there or are you just making a stament ?

Hi Gloup_Gloup

Hi Dark Mantis, ;)
One question I have is about the use of Xeon processors on the motherboard Z68 ... or Q67M
In practice I question whether it is correct to install a cpu Xeon motherboard on Z68 or Q67M?
I refer to precedent post : http://forum.giga-byte.co.uk/index.php/topic,7390.msg58692.html#msg58692

Basically I will choose the Asus monitor model VK278Q.

Hi Friends, ;)
I look for a SSD.
I think take a Corsair.

CSSD-P128GBP-BK 219.99 $ Canada (166 Eu)
I prefer Marvell's 88SS9174-BKK2 controller like Performance Series.

Hi Friends, ;)
I have ordered and paying the Asus VK278Q.
And a DVD Burner : LG Super Multi DVD Rewriter, model GH24NS90
Gradually, I monted my new configuration.

I have checked out that model myself and was quite impressed by it. In the end I decided to stick with my Iiyama 27" monitors as I had already got one and wanted them all to be the same. It is a good monitor though and I am sure that you will be very happy with it especially after your older, smaller model.
Enjoy!
-
Hi Dark Mantis, ;)
Iiyama models are not available in my area.
Otherwise, I would have taken one.
Thank for your appreciation.
Gloup_Gloup
-
Well the Asus is fairly much on a par with the Iiyama anyway. There is not much to choose between them. ;)
-
Hi,
Of course. Thank a lot, again.
Strongly a test on the Asus monitor.

Hi friends,
The Asus 27'' screen arrived to the store.
I will at some future day.
Gloup_Gloup
-
Nice! Now you can get on with the new monitor......or are you planning to get three for an eyefinity setup ? 8)
-
Hi Dark Mantis, and friends, ;)
I can put two screens on my nVIDIA graphics card, 8800 GTS 320.
But Iwould like buy a card AMD ATI HD eyeinfinity.
To connect 3 screens. But the three screens will be different.

Hi Dark Mantis and friends,
My 27'' screen is in to my Home.
Real vision of 27 inches.
Presentation of my desk.
Left the Asus VW266H (1920x1200). And right, the Asus VK278Q(1920x1080).
The two screens have a total forms a diagonal of 49 inches (include center border :P).

Only 49" still never mind......I have over 70" without bragging !!! ;D
Looks good there though now. Once you are used to using multiple monitors though it is really difficult to go back to working with a single one. I feel totally lost on my single monitor setups after my main one.
