Hi
Recently built a new rig about a month or so ago, but finding it just as noisy (if not MORE noisy) than my old machine.
Old machine was:
Amd64 3500, stock amd cooler
evga 6800gt, stock cooler
Raidmax Cobra case, with all the stock fans and the psu that came with it
Abit 3rd eye mboard
..now that was pretty loud, and i though my new machine would be much quieter;
Amdx2 4200 , zalman CNPS7000
Asus a8n-sli SE
Lian Li 61 - havnt even hooked up the fans
XFX 7900gt, stock cooler (think this may be the culprit)
Tagan 530w "silent" psu
Also, I have a 74gig raptor and 250gig hitachi HDD, but its not those causing the noise because I disconnected them.
What can I do to quiet this down? vf900 on the graphics card?
