KingChris Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 Does anyone use one of the current powermac g4 1.25ghz single or duel processor machines, If so could you comment on the noise level of the fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amoeba Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 They make noise? The last dual 1GHz G4 PowerMac I used was inaudible. I constantly had to check and make sure it was on ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingChris Posted February 24, 2004 Author Share Posted February 24, 2004 I've used a quicksilver 867 and it sounds like a hoover, The duel 1.25ghz is great value now and I'm looking to replace my imac but want something quiet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danbalsh Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 They were quite noisy i've heard, but that was down to the Power Supply which Apple offered to replace for all current owners, I'd guess they might have replaced all of there stock at the time.

Chad Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 I've owned the dual 1.25, and now own an 867 Quicksilver. The Quicksilver is quieter, but not by alot. You can go to G4noise.com and buy a quieter fan and powersupply fan made by Verax. Supposedly it does wonders, but it costs a pretty penny.

Elliott Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 Yea, I've heard the G4 towers, and they're pretty loud. My G5 is perfectly quiet though, but the cooling mechanism is a lot more advanced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
