My setup consists of an Athlon II 250 CPU, passive AMD HD6570 gpu, BD drive and 2.5" HDD. The psu is by Silverstone 400 watts.

The loudest fan is the Scythe CPU cooler.

Been on vacation for a couple of weeks... Thanks David for pointing me to the great Assassin's FAQ. Been running the fans at 5v now and it's working great, almost no fan noise and it still is pretty cool inside.
