Looking at trying to quiet down a case or two...

Anybody know how well this works?

Or whether I'd get better results with Dynamat sheets?

Dynamat works by absorbing vibrations in whatever it is stuck to, the vibrations are what we hear as noise of course.

That much dynamat will probably cost more than $12.00 so I would say go ahead and give it a shot.

Nowever, expect some increase in temperatures inside your case. The metal panels in your case will no longer be able to sink the heat out.

Of course, you must let us know how it turns out!!!

I used the AcoustiPack stuff like that in a case, and it worked very well. There IS a review, too...

do those things insulate your computer any and make the case hotter or do they breathe well?

Thats not too much of a difference...I personally use 2 fanbusses to keep my system quiet.
