Hi Panda, The monitor fan is hardly noticeable unless you concentrate on the noise. (but that's all subjective anyway). Of course, you also have to take into account the production scattering^^. Apart from that, if your PC is in another room and you leave the door open, you will probably hear the PC rather than the monitor fan. Since my PC is water-cooled, I only hear the quiet whirring of the PC's fan but nothing from the monitor. Otherwise, it's a great piece of equipment and I'm very satisfied with it.

Thank you! That helps a bit more. My computer is also cooled with water, but it still gets quite warm with overclocking. This in turn leads to a higher fan speed to get the heat out of the case. So for me it's not just a whisper. Probably need a bigger one. I'll take a chance with the monitor.
