Yeah that appears to cause it the most, but do beware of doing to ‘must stress for faults’ thing as, psychologically, you will just start hunting out for issues that wouldn’t have bothered you if you hadn’t put your mind to it.... if that makes sense!
Or put another way, you’re not running AIDA64 all of the time, so don’t worry too much about noise that’s only there when you run AIDA64

Ya I was trying to think of a program to run just to test. Computer is a bit in shambles atm... I could install cyberpunk lol but don't really want to install a big game if by chance I'll need to get a different motherboard.

How you getting on mate ?
Do be careful with this... just did this acting carefully and seemingly snapped a screw! Oh dear....
@djxput
The screws were definitely loose though.

Your not having much luck are you
That is a pretty good assessment....
As I said on another forum, it’s particularly annoying as the screw was nowhere near ‘tight’.
It’s probably tighter than it was originally so I guess I’ll just soldier on....
Soldato
Hopefully youll be able to sort it mate
Your luck sounds lime mine if it can go wrong it will
Havnt got much done today so far, maybe tonite and tomorrow I'm at work all day. I got the phanteks aio today, but I need some quiet time to evaluate and do that ie check pump sound of both and check VRM noise...
Got updates installed and windows, amd chipset, nividia drivers, mb drivers, ram drive , icue,... Hmmm
I want to get my build finalised, need it up and running.
Oh with the phanteks do they have a zero rpm mode for fans if you want ie under a certain temp? I like that especially if just browsing the net.
Geez you snapped a screw on the mb? That's no good, thanks for warning me because I'm going to be doing that soon.

My bequiet high speed fans came today aswell quieter on pc start up still hear them but not as bad as the phantek fans left them on same fan curve definitely pushing more air through rad you can feel it out the top of case
As for the fan question of 0rpm certain temp I just set it in bios so I couldn't hear them at all still on but lovely and quiet
Hope you have more luck... honesty feel completely cheated! There is no way anyone could have predicted that screw snapping! The others are all nice and tight though.
Bah!
Soldato
Can you get the screw out and put a new one in
I think it’s snapped in - no obvious way to get it out but whatever’s in there should be tight. I think trying to sort it might cause even more damage.
Soldato
Oh ok
What fans did you get?
The 3rd aio I was considering. Was this one:

This aio has some nice reviews (cheap, nice fans, the thing that I wasn't sure the pump was hanging in the hoses and I dont think you could set it much lower speed wise, so I was worried about the noise).
The bequiet fans seem quite good thou.
If I'd keep the phanteks aio I'd be doing the same thing with the fans eventually... Getting different ones (rgb ones).

Nice!
BTW saw you bought a 1200psu in the mm, what you going to do with one of those? Oh and had your wife pay. My wife was supposed to get me a computer case the past 2 Christmas (this is what started the whole new build)... But I ended up buying it because wife... Well who knows...
Soldato

Ha ya... I didn't want to upgrade last year because I didn't want to put an old dusty system in a new case... ya a 1200psu should be enough for anything. I heard even 850 psus good for 3080s etc...
