Is this Loud? or normal?

[Stephenh313]

Yes this is a vid with the case off, but still similar noise with case off and only skipping through a youtube video

starts "boosting" with general web use and youtube viewing

have I mounted something wrong? or is this just how it sounds?

What temps are you getting? What is the airflow like in the case?

run cputemp, idle desktops should be pretty cool and cpu fans should slow down. I cant get that video to show.

this is a while after startup not much load so rather cool imo..
it's just a constant "buzz"

airflow pretty bog standard, 2 case fans in a define s case

tried to reattach the vid still not working, no idea

sorted vid,

if the fans faulty I can send it back to intel? or do I send it back to the vendor?

definitely not catching on anything

thinking of just buying an aftermarker fan.. RMA seems like a hassle

It starts on boot up, a large whirr from fans they then calm down then the buzzing starts continuously

Is that a stock cooler? looks like. If so they are loud normally because they are crap.

Hi Stephen as everyone has said the stock cooler is a bit crap so go get yourself a nice aftermarket cooler and enjoy cooler temps and quieter fans.

Yeah stock cooler thanks, I was just unsure if it was just loud or I had received a faulty fan, was looking for clarification before I bought a new fan ha

thanks a lot all, any suggestions on a cheap one?
