Hi all
I recently upgraded my computer, bought an i5 2500k, an Asus P8Z68 - V-LX mobo and an XFX HD6850 gfx card.
All seems to be running well however the GFX card is really loud, and because of my desk I have to have the case sitting right next to my head.
I'm currently using an Antec sonata 3 case, with a 500w psu that came with it, I was wondering whether there might be something i can do, perhaps a new silent case or some foam treatment. Or will this not really help with the gfx fan noise, anything over 60% fan speed is really pretty loud.
Thanks
