Hey.
The stock fans on the Antec 300 case are a bit too loud for my liking, (I'm going to be recording some music in my room, and don't want the drone of fans in the background) so I'm wondering if a change to Akasa AK191 would make a difference.
Using PC Wizard 2009, I've got some figues on my temps.
My AMD Phenom II 550 is running at around 29-33 c.
My mobo is running at about 38 c.
The Akasa fans say they run at 1400Rpm, and my current fans are 1600-1900.
So, if I change to Akasa fans, which will probaly mean less cooling, can I get away with the higher temps? Or should I sacrifice sound for performance?
Thanks in advance.
