Tried it out inside the case, approximately where I'd be installing it, and it sounds great. No more noise (that I can perceive, at a variety of volume levels) with the bare PCB in there than externally, and in a case. With the upcoming 250W HDPLEX AC/DC unit (which'll go against the case wall below the half height, single width PCIE card), this'll probably end up in other PCI card slot space, towards the front of the case. Just need to figure out volume knob + jack. Jack can panel mount on bezel and just run a tiny length of cable to the existing jack, I think. Volume knob... dunno there. Probably will try getting equivalent pot (or just this one) desolder this one, mount it on bezel as well and run jumper cables to the PCB holes? Something like, anyway.
