QuietPC.com is the only UK site specialising in selling that sort of stuff I've come across. Prices are not as good as they first appear because they don't include VAT. Dabs have some of the same stuff, so do Kustompcs, and various sites with "overclock" in the name and mixed reviews on a Google group search. I always find the output on Dab's pages a bit of a mess, but they do have a good reputation for actually delivering what you ordered when they say they will (QuietPC and KustomPCs don't seem to have bad reputations, but are much smaller). The Silent PC and Silent PC Review have lots of reviews. Apart from that Googling for "silent PC" and/or "quiet PC" finds various guides and reviews and US retailers. But I haven't been looking very seriously, or with as strict as requirement as recording acoustic music. Record to DAT and then do the computer processing later? Put the computer in another room with a long mic lead to the sound card input?
