Jesus that cant be right surely, its well loud, 83dba is that, wtf, ear bleeder!!!

83dba aint an ear bleeder, dont you have speakers on you pc? at a decent level they can be louder, I sometimes listin to music and its on the verge of 120db and my ears aint bleeding, I even played the general lee horn or w/e it is through maxed and that aint an ear bleeder lol.

I think you might be exaggering a little, 83dB is pretty high, I'm talking like heavy traffic high, and listening to music at 120dB is pretty daft. That's like an extremely loud rock concert and nearing on permenant damage to your ear.

the point is, who plays their comp with their head 1cm from the gfx fan?

Why would you want a cooler that vents to case and not atmosphere? Simple answer: you wouldn't!

(unless your a daft bugger)
