Hi,
My PC is going in the main bedroom and I game at night when the Mrs will be trying to sleep, because of this I need to make every effort to quieten it down.
Current relevant specs -
Fractal Design Meshify C
Be Quiet Dark Rock 4 CPU cooler
Vega 56 Pulse
2 x Arctic P series 140mm intakes
1 x Arctic P series 120mm exhaust
I've messed with fan settings via the BIOS and got them silent at idle, unfortunately the system is too loud under load.
The noise comes from the GPU which I cant do much about at the moment and also the case fans which are extremely loud at full pelt, I'm not looking at defying science I get that you need to make noise to push air but I am looking for fans and maybe even a white midi ATX case that will make a difference to the amount of noise if anyone can suggest anything? I've noticed Be Quiet are bringing out a white 500 Series case but until reviews drop I'm not sure how quiet it is and with a sealed front its going to be worse for temps than my current PC
Another thing I am considering is slower spinning fans which would be unfortunate but might be worth it?
Any recommendations on fans or anything else I can consider?
Thanks
