    All C++.
    DirectX redist too.
    Flash - as you want, but why not.
    Net Framework - when needed.
     
    Install everything. It's common myth that too many programs can slow down your computer. No, unless they start with system. And even if some program slow down boot process a little, benefits will be worth it. Fast working on computer after boot is more important than boot itself. If any tool can help you improve your work - use it.
     
    For example - DisplayFusion can slow down boot process but it's useful program (paid). UltraVNC can slow down boot (and for sure slows down shut down process), but if you want to control your computer over internet - it's worth wait few seconds more.
     
    Also - if you have big music library - try MusicBee (but install Aimp as default player for faster start if you want to play single mp3).
     
    At the end, when you'll have everything you need - install Macrium Reflect, made Rescue USB using this program, boot from USB and made image of your system. If something wrong happens, you'll have possibility to restore your system very quick.

    If you mean drivers, Win10 installs all you need. Though if you are using gaming peripherals, I recommend downloading and installing their own software and driver packages.

    Do not install crap like that. Leave your drivers alone if they work good. Do not focus on system, focus on nice software.

    Grab the cheapest tower cooler you can find on the market. That will be overkilll for the CPU you are using, but it will be quiet.

    If you are searching for a good quiet low profile cooler, you should check Artcic Freezer 11 LP - very cheap, absolutelly silent. I've got it on my i7-4770 and I'm satisified.

    What are your temps? Have you tried lowering fan speeds?
     
    Moved to Air Cooling.

    Some new thermal paste should make the stock cooler good again.

    Temps aren't that high -- it's fine up to 80-90c at load. You can afford to lower fan speeds a bit.
    Are you sure that the noise is from your cpu cooler and not elsewhere in the system like on the graphics card? Does stopping the cpu fan with your hand stop the noise?

    Stopping the fans with your hand is fine as long as they're not dangerously high rpm. The Intel stock cooler blades are rather thick and not dangerous. No, you won't get shocked.

    You can get a cooler master Hyper 212/212X/212 Evo. Theyre relatively cheap are only audible at 2000 rpm. i say so cuz i have one 
  13. Agree
    stefs reacted to WoodenMarker in G4650 cooler   
    Don't update the bios if you don't need to since an error can potentially brick the card.
    What case do you have and how is the case airflow set up? Temps are abnormally high for a 1050 Ti with fans at 2000rpm.

    The cheapest solution would be to add a rear exhaust: https://www.grooves-inc.com/arctic-gmbh-120mm-arctic-cooling-f12-pro-arctic-gmbh-hardware-electronic-pZZa1-2097970575.html?osCsid=7f06243340d92ebcf0c00e2fdde0c44f
    It can only be mounted one way in push so keep that in mind if you want to reuse it in a different location for a future system. 
    If you want more flexibility, you could use the normal F12 rev. 2 instead. It performs a bit worse but can be mounted in pull: https://www.grooves-inc.com/arctic-gmbh-120mm-arctic-cooling-f12-pwm-rev-arctic-gmbh-accessories-pZZa1-2098043196.html?osCsid=7f06243340d92ebcf0c00e2fdde0c44f
    You can add a second fan at the front as intake if you want more airflow. 
    If you want something particularly quiet, PW2's: https://www.grooves-inc.com/quiet-pure-wings-120mm-pwm-gehaeuseluefter-bequiet-hardware-electronic-pZZa1-2097677670.html?osCsid=7f06243340d92ebcf0c00e2fdde0c44f

    1 rear exhaust is already enough and an additional front intake is plenty.
