If you don't know anything about the subject at hand then just don't post. Mid-tower office PCs are going to be quiet 99% of the time, unless you are pushing them as gaming machines, and then it is expected. For multimedia tasks and with modern hardware from the last ten years playing 1080p video is not going to impact fan speed. Hard drives can be swapped with SSDs.

And average office PC fully stock is going to be much quieter than a satellite or cable receiver with a hard drive and a fan in it. Those make a lot of noise.

A mini set-top box will be quieter than an office PC, but it is also limited in its capabilities. I'd never accept that compromise. If I wanted full silence I'd just build a quiet PC or run wires from a closet.
