Does anyone know of a software that could take a microphone audio input and process it into the negative noise to play into headphones? AKA Noise Cancellation.
I had this thought: What would happen if I put a microphone inside my PC... maybe it could reduce the fan noises ect...
Thoughts?

> noise cancellation
Yes, if
- your microphone is small enough to fit into one of the headphone halves
- you have two microphones; one for each side
- the mic-DSP-headphone system has a linear frequency response in the audible band
- the DSP's latency is low enough that you don't get nasty delay effects
Putting the mic next to the fan won't do shit because the noise from the fan takes a complex path (or rather, several paths) to your ear, which means the fan will sound different inside the case than it does in your ear. You'd have to compensate for that with your DSP which requires exact knowledge of the system and only works if you sit at the exact same spot all the time. You can't move your head, you can't move any large objects in your room.
TL;DR
It's impractical, either get noise cancelling headphones (passive works well enough), a quieter PC or deal with the noise.

Have you considered just buying Noctua fans?
