No WC experience here, but I've built a silent PC. I got a Fractal Design
case, a Zalman CPU fan that at its low speed is absolutely silent, and a
fanless GPU card.
My CPU runs in the 40-50C range consistently and the GPU rarely goes above
45C. I've been really happy with it for years now. I don't think WC would
have been any better.
