Re: Is Dell XPS 600 really too noisy?



Can't speak to the XPS line, but their Dimension and OptiPlex line is
usually pretty quite and well insulated. XPS should be well insulated as
well, the main thing would be extra heat and a louder hard drive in that
machine that would cause fans to run more. Dell have some forums at
http://support.dell.com that you might try asking for advice about noise.
