What's the quietest fan for a pc?

What is the quietest fan for a PC? One that you can sleep by without being at all disturbed?

I'm not a light sleeper, except when falling asleep.

Thanks again!

I have never heard a fan very loud, especially loud enough to disturb sleeping! Why don't you just put your computer in standby mode at night when sleeping, that turns my fan off completely.

sanyo denki and ys-tech makes fans that are strong, but quiet. well, that's what i think. but.. .i'm running with a loud computer. it has 4 fans and a turbine (slot cooler). then soon it'll have 5 fans when i add a homemade card cooler. overdoing it? yes, but, at least i know my computer is cool.

We are using 3dfxcool fans in our two systems ( 4 case fans,cpu fan,video cooling fan,hard drive heat sink with two fans,and bay fans bewtween cdrom and cd-rw). They are very quite and have life time warranty. Here is the site.
Oh ya we also have fans over monitors but they are little loud

A number of my clients have begun using fans by Japan Servo.

Take a look here http://www.japanservo.com/fan1.htm and I think you'll find a very quiet fan for your needs. BTW, they are VERY reliable...as reliable as the Cadillac of fans, Papst!

Good luck...
