[QUOTE="RobNorthcott, post: 535804, member: 57999"] It's not that much of a rebuild - just having to take it apart to replace the mobo (with an identical one). I've thought a couple of times about getting rid of the CPU fan and rigging up some ducting to one of the two 120mm case fans instead, but never got round to it - it would be easier with one of those vertical radiator-type heatsinks rather than the stock AMD flat one. But it's all pretty quiet anyway how it is (and I'm quite easily annoyed by noisy PCs). I suppose a completely fanless machine would be less prone to getting dust inside though, but that's another project of its own. Rob [/QUOTE]
