i need a quiet running computer so that my condensor mic doesn't pick up noise while recording digital audio. this case has gotten good reviews... for silent running.
any other suggestions?
thanx in advance

Isn't your icon the cover from The Police, "Ghost in the Machine"? Man that was a great album!

Research the power supply, make sure other people have tried it and say it's good. Make sure it has all the expansion slots you need as well as LEDs and buttons (I don't know why, but not all cases come with reset buttons...)

yes mobius... and i will do more research topher.
it is built for 120mm fans which i guess is a biggie in noise reduction.
anything else? i'm really a technical midget.

Technically that's a tight case

I have one, I lurb it.
The layout inside is sweet. The hard drive bays are very cool. The rubber gromets really seem to help with drive noise and fan noise by removing any resonant tones. The power supply seems very good.

All in all Im very happy with it.

Thats has a True PSU.
I have one.
Antec, of course, makes it.
Its the best except for Enermax.
I'm running a True330 w/ Athlon XP 1800 @ 10X and 200MHz FSB plus a GeForce 4 Ti 4200, 2 512MB PC3200, Lite-On DVD-ROM, Western Digital 8MB 7200RPM Hard Drive, Floppy, and the Shuttle AN35N Ultra.
Don't forget the 3 Smart Fans and the CPU Fan.
No power problems.
True380 should be pretty good.
