Hey,
I just bought a kit build a week or so ago from Tigerdirect,
MSI MOBO
AMD Phenom X6
8GB DDR3
1TB HD
+Case & PSU
The AMD stock fan is driving me insane spinning at excess of 3700 RPM
I bought 3 case fans, 2 120mm and a 80mm to help the airflow a bit. They are silent as hell, but the CPU fan is insanely loud.
I really would rather not buy a new heatsink and fan, so instead I'd rather tune it down a notch.
All the fans are currently on full blast, I can control the fans, but I'm not sure what would be a good temperature to keep the case at.
Currently, the CPU idles at ~18C and never reaches above 25C even under full load, the system temp averages ~30C while gaming, and ~25C while idle.
What would a good temperature be to keep my case while not sacrificing performance?
