I have just installed the HG10 N980. Using this with a Corsair H55.
At idle the temp is 30deg C and at load about 65 Deg C. This compares to 41 and 80.
However what's annoying me is the noise the fan makes and no matter what I do I can't seem to reduce the speed below 1600rpm,. What the hell is the problem, have Corsair fitted a chap fan than cant go below 1600rpm?
Are there any mods I can do to improve this as the main point of going Water Cooled as the reduction in noise. Now its louder as my EVGA 980ti SC+ was silent below 50 Deg C
Something doesn't sound right. Ive just installed the h55 and the stock fan I control with my fan controller. Note: fan is 3 pin not 4 pin. I have mine running at 1400rpm nice and silent...and cooler than yours by 7-10c
