best quiet gaming computer image

I have see those vibration pads, I have seen fans claiming to be almost silent. Whats the best way without spending a lot of $ for a fan control system. It is a gaming computer so it does need to maintain good cooling whatever the solution.
Answer
hm. You could spen a lot of money on fans, true.
The cover of my dell slides right off. It can help to remove the cover and place a fan near it. move the computer to a cooler area.
What type of graphics card do you have? Hopefully not an onboard one. I have an Nvidia PCI card in my comp with a quiet kickass fan in it.
I think your fist step is locating what is making all the noise. Sometimes it is the panels, which can be rubberized to reduce noise.
you could also try the blitzstorm slotcooler, although your best bet is liquid cooling like alienware use. Price 25-50 bucks on average.

What MAKES a good gaming computer? AMD FX4100 a good, moderately priced gaming CPU?

What do I need to take into account when building a gaming computer?
Is the AMD FX4100 a good gaming CPU? It's supposed to be a 3.6 GHz processor, 10 MB cache: I would have thought that was good enough for any game out there. Does it run properly with Windows 7?

Hi Tom - thanks for your answer.
I am interested in having a look at that table you mentioned, but it seems you forgot to add a link.
Answer
This processor is just barely ok, but you could get a better one for the same price. If anything, I'd just spend more and get a better one. If you look at the table I linked, the AMD FX-6300 Six-Core is really similar in price, but way, way better. 33 dollars more for 50% increase in performance.
Additionally, youll need to consider cooling as a priority and suprisingly enough, 3.6ghz clock speed doesnt really mean anything anymore, its all about heat management, how efficient the processor is, stuff like that. So you will find some processors will perform better in spite of having a lower clock speed.
I have linked a ranking table on how well all the processors you'll find in the market on performance. Many of which also have a price next to them so you can find a good deal!
I'd try to put as much money in to the processor, graphics card and cooling system as possible. If youre considering building your own PC, ensure the case is pretty good (I use the Antec 900 and it's been amazing!) for cooling needs and RAM is very cheap to upgrade, so get some decent stuff, but realise that youll be able to get some much nicer stuff later on for cheap (as it gets cheap fast).
If you're on a budget, it's best to save for a bit longer to get your gaming rig.
If anything, for cooling, I'd say go for the Noctua NH-D14 for cooling. It's in the top 5 best cooling options and it's far quieter than the other 4.
If you have a nice case and that heat sink I recommended, you'll be able to overclock your processor no problem (It is really easy to do).
EDIT: I'm so sorry! here is the link for you :)
