Building a quiet PC

Hi Guys,

I'm currently in the process of purchasing components to build myself a quiet (perhaps silent?) PC based around the AOpen 915GM motherboard and Pentium M chip.

So far I have ordered:
-AOpen i915GM-HFS motherboard.
-Zalman Ultra Quiet 400W ZM400B-APS PSU.
-Gigabyte GV-NX66T256D Fanless 128MB 6600GT.
-Samsung SP120 250GB HDD

Yet to order:
-Case
-Memory (the board can take up to 2MB of DDR2 533MHz)
-Processor (I'm looking at the 533MHz FSB Pentium Ms, perhaps the 750 or 760)
-Monitor (17 or 19in LCD - I have a Iiyama ProLite E431S on my current setup, and I've been very impressed).
-Keyboard/mouse/speakers

Any recommendations/thoughts?
