quiet PC

That is certainly not true!!

Yes, the power supply plans for sufficient airflow to cool the average 
chassi but it certainly is not a good idea to run with no cooling at 
all. Those voltage regulators get very hot and simple convection of the 
heat to a static air environment will simply not suffice.
