Topic!
I was doing water cooling for a couple of months but first of all my pump got loud and noisy for some reason, and my water turned brown (guess I shoulda put chorline in it or something) so I got ****ed and put my thermaltake volcano 9 back on.
The problem is, its loud as hell!
Does anyone know what the quietist method of air cooling this cpu would be?
I'm not overclocking anymore, I'm happy with it at stock speed, so I just want it to be quiet now. I play games though, so I assume I can't get away with the stock fan, right?
Right now, after playing Tribes 2 for an hour, my cpu temp is 59 C, and my fan is spinning at 5,200 RPM.
My case is always fairly hot because its small so the hot air builds up inside it. I could hook up an exhaust fan but that would add to the noise problem.
Any suggestions?
