Is silent computing still a thing? Whenever I look for goos silent

>low rpm fans
there is literally nothing else to it

You also get less noise if you buy more effificent processor without TIM under heatspreader.

Sure isl.
As previous anon said, get some colossal cooler like noctua-nh-d15, or Hyper 212+ EVO as a cheaper alternative so the passive cooling from the heatsink does most of the job. Slap on one decent pressurized fan using a dampener, and then look for a graphics card with the performance you want and get the variant that has a low noise level and not-shit-reviews.
You do not need a silenced case, but if you want it to be "basically unhearable under full load" for whatever reason (do you sleep next to the system while rendering or something?) you may considered it. You do not need a multitude of case fans.

Thanks for the input guys.

No, I don't render but I just can't stand this type of noise and want to reduce it to a minimum.

a case with some sort of noise dankening also helps.

Look at HardwareCanucks latest video about sound dampening on youtube.
