My PC housing (Big Tower) was a magnificent sound box for fine vibrations. It was always a slight humming sound. Now that all insides are covered with this material, there is absolute peace in the housing. The plates can also be processed very well. Dealing with a cutter knife should of course be practiced, so that there are no injuries. On the heat-dissipation material has no effect because the vents are free. Smell I could not tell. (Except during processing course)
