I would look into getting water cooling its dead quiet and much better that any kind of cooling (for a price, I know that Liquid Nitrogen is better but its too expensive)

I want to get water cooling for my G4 and get rid of the fans but I am never going to get insider the power supply!

Oh sweet. I'm doing this the next chance I get!

O to have a quiet QuickSilver.

It's worth it for the noise reduction, but it's not worth it if it voids your warranty.

Micro-Solutions offers a smaller heatsink to quiet down the large heatsink/fan combo as well, with a copper base.
