Default Case Sound Dampening Foam- which one?

Which sound dampening foam?

The Quietpc Accoustipack is quite expensive.

I would choose from Akasa Paxmate, Cooloermaster Pro Studio, and Muffled
Computing Wispermat. What do you recommend?

Thanks,
QZ

I cant really compare any of these against each other as I have only used
the one type, but I think the Akasa Paxmate is quite decent. It does a
fairly good job of attenuating all frequencies and lowering the higher
frequencies such as those from high RPM fans and hard drives. However, when
I bought it, it had an AWFUL smell, and the second batch had to live in the
garage for a few days before coming into the house and having the PC fans
blow the smell around!

paxmate is worthless garbage, pretty much all the cheap ones are.
