Questions Regarding: Proper Fan Controlling and Fan choice.
2 minutes ago, Alkali A said:The original reason was noise; however, that might not be a problem after I tweak a few things in the BIOS, yet to be seen.
Aesthetics wise I was thinking of getting red led fans from corsair because they'd give me red leds in the case, and I could then make the actual case leds (which I haven't gotten yet, or decided on which ones to get) to white so I can see the inside of the case much better, without completely flooding the whole case with nothing but red (kinda hate that).
Temperature wise the CPU idles at just under or at 30 degrees Celsius and hits 60 degrees while the stress test built into CPUZ is running; the GPU idles at just over 30 degrees celsius, and gets up to just over 50 degrees Celsius while Heaven is running on ultra.
It should be noted that I do have a fan curve on the gpu though, and it gets pretty loud by the time it's fully under load.
Your temps are very low. You're fine up to 80-90c at load for both the cpu and gpu. I'd say to get your fan curve as low as possible.
Corsair's ML fans are good and their AF/SP LED fans are alright at best. Depending on what you go for, you could split the signal from either your cpu_fan or sys_fan1/2 headers.
