Well finally after 4 years I have built my new PC - I wonder how long this one lasts 
The components:-
Corsair 550D Case
Corsair 850AX PSU
GByte GA-Z77X-UD3H Z77 MoBo
Intel Core i5 3570K
GByte Windforce GTX670 Video Card
8gig Corsair Vengance Low Prof memory
180GB Intel 330 Series SSD
24" BenQ XL2420T
Noctua NH-D14 CPU Cooler
2 * Noctua NF-P14 FLX (replace 1 rear fan and new lower fan)
2 * Noctua NF-P12 PWM (replaced 2 front fans in case)
================
Hopefully one of you guys can help me:-
Questions so far
1. The case fans are all running at 1200RPM and sounds very loud - I bought these Noctua fans to be quiet.... How do I quiet these fans? Can I do it in the bios? Or do i have to use the supplied cable to limit speed?
2. Bios settings - Soooo many new options in there? Anyone got any ideas the best bios settings for this mobo before I install windows 7? Or can I just leave as default? I will OC in a week or so when my system is up and running stable.
3. Lucid MVP - do I need this with my 670GTX? What is the right procedure to use this?
4. Any other top tips would be appreciated....
Thanks for you help.....
