[QUOTE="fathead, post: 13943, member: 12005"] Having owned the best part of 5 or 6 Shuttles personally at home, and using god knows how many at work, I can honestly say don't get the SN41G2 if you want quiet. In fact don't buy Shuttle if you want quiet. The PSU's (including the new silentx ones) are noisey. The ICE fan is noisey. On the SN41G2 they have an activly cooled north bridge with a noisey 40mm fan - this need to be cooled in this way due to the onboard graphics etc. All the Shuttle G series cases have the graphics card on the left of the PCI slot, meaning you can't get any decent cooling on the card & its wedged up against the case side which makes extra noise. The only huttle worth considering for a quiet HTPC would be the ZEN. [/QUOTE]
