I must be a very heavy sleeper coz i can sleep with my pc on and it has 4 fans and one of the gfx card and its very loud.

sounds like it

My PC isn't loud, it's just the frequency it makes is irritating and not a soothing noise

Boland on a different note, how are you running an Athlon 3200+ with PC2100 memory? the 3200+ requires an FSB of 200Mhz, and PC2100 only provides 133Mhz.

My rigs aren't all that loud...now that rackmout switch is a bit noisy. It doesn't bother me all that much really. If I'm tired, I will go to sleep (even when my little bro has band practince outside my room).

Thinking about it my computer isn't very loud either, or irritating .. im just fussy.

My pc is very loud, with 7 fans in total, one of which is 12cm's wide.

Mind, the case is of fairly poor quality, which no doubt allows the fans noise to reverberate around the inside.

Don't notice it too much when using it as either loud sounds of screams and death or music. Which in my case tend to sound the same.

Procal I have updates my RAM i just havnt updated my hardware page sorry

Waffle · 17-01-2005, 08:31 PM

lol I just looked at the HSF. holy mother of god.

That's a fat assed piece of kit.

Is there actually room in the case for that, or is it not as big as it looks?

Well literally the only thing making noise in my computer now is my graphics card, everything else is literally inaudiable

I can highly recommend the Artic Cooler Freezer 64, stock my temps are:
CPU:29-31C (idle) 36C Load
SYS:22-25C
PWM:26-29C

Going to stress it out with some F@H and see what the temps look like

OK, with my computer OC'd to 2.3Ghz from 2.0Ghz:
FSB 230 x 10 / LDTx4 / DDR VDimm: 2.7V temps are:
CPU:33C (idle) 41C Load
SYS:25C
PWM:34C

And thats after running F@H for an hour

Sounds like you got a happy little system thar. Right now I have 10 fans in my case. 4 of which are vantec stealths producing almost no noice, but my case does VERY good dampening fan noise and vibrations
