After asking "Why is my quiet case so noisy?" on [livejournal.com profile] computerhelp, I tried an experiment last night. After running the machine until it got really loud, I opened up the case and put my finger on the CPU fan, stopping it briefly.

The noise stopped completely.

So, I need a new CPU fan that's not so loud. The question is, which fan should I buy?

My motherboard has an optional voice-post, and it bitches at me about fan failures when it's turned on.

A fanless PSU and CPU just confuse it, poor thing...
