GPU when using any higher overclock profiles with manual set fanspeed.

 

Other than that any noise from the PC drowns in the noise from my table fan this time of year.

 

Always using closed headphones with the PC anyway.

Probably the Hard Drive, otherwise it's pretty silent just with normal usage. GPU is the loudest part when gaming.

GPU when doing some heavy graphics stuff. When idle/normal use, my case fans/case vibration from fans.

depends on how I have it running

 

Gaming: rear exhaust fan and GPU fan

 

Quiet mode - H100i pump

If I were a bird, I'd fly into a ceiling fan.

 Definitely my GPU.... I use the manual fan control in Overdrive to keep it low when I'm not playing games, because it gets really annoying to me if I'm just watching a video or something.
