PCs usually aren't completely silent under load anyway (at least none that I've owned). No fan is silent at nominal voltage (and unmodulated) but when slowed down to a low enough RPM they can easily be less audible than GPU coils, many monitors, powered on speakers, room lighting, ... (and "more silent" than a powerful PC's static parts under load).
