I'm contemplating buying a new 8400 and was wondering about noise. Dell
doesn't give specs on sound output but I would like a machine that is at
least as quiet as my iMac, which is to say nearly inaudible. How do the
8400s rate? I would not get the fastest CPU, by the way. Also, does
anyone know if the video cards Dell uses (the two lower priced cards the
X300 and X800) have a heat sink or a fan on them, since that can
contribute to noise.
