I replaced all my fans with Noctua and put it on the floor and now I can't hear my PC any more unless I run a very demanding game. Best decision I ever made. Why didn't /g/ tell me sooner?
poors will come in here and cope about their five pack fans
>>107765014>>107765045Buy an ad.
>>107765014noc tuah
>>107765014>and now I can't hear my PC any morenicei achieve the same result with $3 chinkshit fans
>>107765045>msu
I'm glad I bought mine ten years ago before the price climbed due to popularity. Too bad they're so fucking ugly, even if I can't see them most of the time.
>>107765185>$3 chinkshit fans replaced every two years because they start rattling>haha i owned them noctua fags, they dont know all fans are the same!!!
>>107765244>replaced every two years because they start rattlingyou don't need to make shit up in order to validate your purchase you know
>>107765244op's fan is like $35, unless it lasts for literally 20 years it's cheaper to replace $3 chinkshit fan every two years lmao
>>107765350>unless it lasts for literally 20 yearsmy noctua runs the same since 2009how many more years should i wait according to poors?
>>107765379>acts smarter than everyone else>can't figure out what 2009+20 isthank you Noctuafag, very cool
>>107765350>lmao epic meme broIf you vote with your wallet to only buy disposable shit - that you need to replace constantly like it's a subscription service - you're the reason the world has gone shit. Why would companies make decent products that last for decades when people are happy with garbage?
>>107765014>be quiet fans >aio cooler >machine is so quiet i can hear the coil whine and no idea how to fix it
>>107765428>that you need to replace constantlysource?
>>107765014The only downside to my Noctua NH-D15 is that it covers my $120 (now $400) RAM kit. The thing is a beast tho. >>107765350I've been running the same noctua fans in my server since 2015, probably the only thing I haven't upgraded besides the PSU.
>>107765452>hey man it's cheaper to buy these and replace them every two years>what do you mean replace constantly, who said anything about that??Keep up or shut up.
>>107765014I have 6 Noctua fans in my case, worse decision of my life. I do not know silence.
>>107765014I fucking love their rubber pins that you pull through to hold it in the case. Can't believe how this shit hasn't been made standard yet, FUCK screws.
>>107765548those have been a thing since forever, core 2 duo optiplexes used them for the cpu fanjust buy a bag on ebay or something
>>107765014>put xer PC on the floor
>>107765014Should've bought Arctic, gg.
>get case for optimal flow>get fastest fans possible>build soundproof box around it for a few bucks>enough space to not compromise airflow>enough padding to make it completely silent>can always run every fan at max speed without hearing a thingyou can thank linus later
>>107765215>>107765466The ones I got with the NH-D14 started to make vacuum noise after 6 or 7 years wtf
>>107765747>cuckimefuck off, you don't belong here
>>107765014>I replaced all my fans with NoctuaI thought it was common knowledge that Noctua has the best but expensive fans on the market. There are few outliers like phanteks t30 for similiar price, but still. >>107765014>unless I run a very demanding gameDeshroud the GPU and put more Noctua inside. >>107766161>The ones I got with the NH-D14 started to make vacuum noise after 6 or 7 years wtfAsk for a replacement. You overpaid for a fan for a reason.
>>107765548Zalman fans came with these silent mounting pegs 20+ years ago, just saying. >>107765014I like their heatsinks and hate their fans. The nfa14 is noisy, and emits coil whine noises above like 500 rpm that drive me insane. The nfa12x25, nfa9 and 9x14 also make a high pitched noise that I find irritating as hell.I have a set of about 7-8 year old nidec GTs that I'm still using in everything, including on my nhc14s.
>>107765185>i achieve the same result with $3 chinkshit fansI heard that a thousand times over the span of my life and every time I experienced their "you literally can't hear it"-PCs, it sounded like a fucking 747 taking off.
>>107766428whoa what case is that?
>>107765759>box fills with hot air >machine overheats and shuts down thanks linus
