Do people just leave the side of their case off or something. At 100% it's definitely not loud unless I remove the side panel off my case. It makes a noise for sure, but everyone makes it sound like it's the end of the world noise.
- duncanawoods 7y agoEh, mine was in a heavy-duty steel tower and it definitely wasn't fit for purpose. Maybe you just got lucky... or perhaps double-check that you aren't accidentally under-volting :)
- philliphaydon 7y agoI have a NZXT H700i. Now if I compare my friends pc in the same tower with a after market cooler. When he turns it on I had to double check I pressed power cos it was silent. In mine. I hear a tiny noise. When at full speed. I can hear it. But it isn’t loud. In fact my old AIO was louder. So I definitely know what a good quality silent cooler is like. And I’ll upgrade soon just so it runs cooler than the stock one. But I just can’t understand the loudness thing. As the other comment says tho it is subjective.
- numpad0 7y agoLoud is subjective. A friend of mine recently asked if my PC is okay in a very worried tone, I said that’s how I build a PC and he now makes remarks of his annoyance every time the afterburner kicks in, all while it’s just a cruise flight to me.
