I remembered seeing a new product somewhere to reduce noise. Coolermaster has come out with a kit. LINK (http://www.coolermaster.com.hk/en/products/other/pnk-u01.html) except their product is designed to be installed inside your case and that brings up another problem, They absorb heat really well. They claim it doesn't. :rolleyes: Here's a review of their product, LINK (http://www.hkepc.net/product/other/sa-coolermaster(e).htm) They mention testing for temps., But notice they don't show before and after temps. in the results of their test. BTW I got that link off of Coolermaster's website, So Hmmmm :ph34r: This stuff would be really great to use on the inside your desk panels if you have a desk that is designed to house your CPU in a enclosed cubby hole.

F.Y.I. A reduction in only 3db represents a halving of the perceptible noise you can hear and vice versa.
I knew my past experience installing sound systems would come in handy again someday. :P

If you want to go low-buck, You can do basically the same thing with some cheapo mousepads and 3M contact adhesive. :wink:

That looks like packing material. It probably is and they probably sell it for 5 times what they buy it for. :rolleyes: :D

Heres what you do.
Buy a thin foam matters and a razor knife.
Cut to fit.
Unless it is made from a different material. :thumbs: :drink: :woot: :wink:

Looks like a great product.
I didn't see what the blue stuff was.
Maybe the Home depot thing would be a bad idea.

:lol: It does look just like packing material and I'm betting you are right since they didn't mention a price.
I looked for a price on Pricewatch and didn't see anything listed yet.
