Posted September 27, 2019 I can't stand silence, i much prefer ambient noise. When i'm doing something where i need to listen to sound on my computer, i use a noise cancelling headset, so fan noise becomes moot ◒ ◒ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AIO + 4 fans, even in the R6 I can hear them when they spin up high. Not a lot, and headphones or speakers usually are louder.

Posted September 27, 2019 I like a computer with a bit of ambient noise, like just above the sound of the fans moving air, but a loud PC can get annoying. If you've ever used a computer with quiet fans you wouldn't want to go back to something with noisy fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
