I've run both 1/8 and 3/32 drive trains...the former on frames with track ends and the latter on conversions.
No Issues with either.
I do notice that certain cog/ring/chain brand combinations are noisier than others.
In general, the cheaper components wear faster and tend to be noisier.
Run what suits your fancy in as straight a line as you can make it and avoid bio pace chainrings.
