Since leaving my old employer and starting my own business I spend a lot
more time at my desk. I have 2 desktops that run nearly all the time and
the stock CPU coolers are horribly noisy (and people on the other end of
the phone have commented!). My old machines are 'of retirement age', so
I have built new ones, this time with add-on low noise CPU coolers (made
by Noctua).
