Hey guys I have just built a new PC: Silverstone FT02b Asus Z87 Pro Intel i5 4670K G Skill Trident 2,400MHZ Asus GTX 780 Corsair H80i Corsair AX 760W Dell U2713hm Corsair Gaming Series Speakers SP2,500 Everything is working nicely and games are running full spec which is great but there are 2 niggling problems I have. Whilst reasonably quiet. The Corsair H80i does have more noise than I would like. It has SP120L fans. Is there a replacement for these fans that would be quieter and just as good at cooling? Or is it the pump that is causing the noise? Secondly whilst the monitor is good. There is some slight backlight bleeding in the top left corner, noticable on dark games with the lights off. Is it possible to get a monitor with no backlight bleeding? I am trying to decide whether to send the monitor back and get a replacement to see if the backlight issue is better but it seems to be a bit of a lottery with IPS screens! Thank you for any help! M
Nanoxia Deep Silence 120mm AT 60.1 CMF and 14.2 dBS it is the best airflow to sound I have ever seen. I got 2 on my H80 and now it makes less noise then my Gigabyte 3x airforce GTX580. You can just about hear it at 100% setting, when you are very close to the case. Also my temps have gone down at every level.
Hey guys thanks for the replies! Yes I am using Corsair Link, where I can adjust fans and profiles to quiet/ performance etc. On quiet its reasonable but on max or performance it whirs like a jet engine!
Yeah, having it on max is horrible, but performance should not be too bad. What rpm does it run at when on performance mode? Off the top of my head mine runs at around 1900 i think and it's not that much of a noticeable sound level unless you're specifically listening for it.
