Listening to: Bounce - Fat Freddy’s Drop

The Missus gave me the hard word about the noise “my” PC makes. The problem is to be fixed by the time she gets back from Mexico (Sunday… Monday if you include the impact of jet lag and to be fair, if I turn on a computer on Sunday arvo then I need my head read).

Today I started checking out cooling systems for PCs…. talk about a whole new world of weird and wonderful. Looks like an engineer has been let loose in Wonka’s chocolate factory!

After a particularly geeky (even for me), but utter fruitless, conversation with some techo I settled on something with a bunch of folded fins (???) - but importantly: 22db noise output (a pen in the blades of the offending fan (sorry Craig) has shown that the other 5 fans in the box are not too offensive).
