Sy_Accursed Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Right so as you may or may not know (depends on you memory) I have custom built desktop that I built barebones of last summer. When I went home over xmas the fairly cheap processor fan I had in it started to squeal horrendously (made all the worse by the fact I purpsoefully got quiet case fans etc) So basically any recommendations for processor fans that are powerful at cooling but quiet?If you wanna be reallllllly helpful and get into specifics I have an AM2+ socket Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sy_Accursed Posted February 14, 2010 Author Share Posted February 14, 2010 Well by processor fan I mean the full unit as they are sold. So yes heatsink too. And price range isn't too much of an issue, under £60 would be good though Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sy_Accursed Posted February 21, 2010 Author Share Posted February 21, 2010 No offence but given that I clearly said I built it myself, do you really think I'm not tech savvy enough to of checked all the possible causes of the noise before deciding to replace it, which can be an tremendous task if u have to change the backplate and thus basically dismantle the entire system Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldJoe Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 So i might aswell ask, still looking around or have you orderd? If you want i could drop in a couple of more price worthy coolers. I chose the Akasa because it's a good price, i have the Akasa 965 (i think, don't remember lol) and it keeps my cpu (intel [email protected] on full load around 37-40c). So for the price it's good.
