I use this vibration damping stuff they use for DJ's comps. It is dense, rubber-like sheets that are peel and stick. I covered the inside of my side panels, the bottom and top. and the front, including the holes for empty drive bays, and back, including the extra vent holes. This means the airflow is in and out through the fans only. I also used rubber/plastic washers to mount all fans, drives and Other screw-mounted bits. I use the progy that come with the mobo to monitor and automatically adjust the fan speeds as needed. Right now, I can barely hear the case noise, the fans are turning at 2300 rpm or less and the cpu temp is 47C.
