A commissioned build that may be impossible

cw1

If you tell your doctor your feet hurt when you run fast, the doctor’s answer is don’t run so fast. You’re cured, right?
Well, if a way overclocked Creative’s pc is unacceptably loud and hot when rendering for 20 minutes as fast as the pc can go, the doctor’s answer would be, don’t render so fast! An understandable metaphor, but a paradigm that seems to be incurable in the pc Builder’s world.
Can any suggest answers and options for a commissioned build that solves this conundrum? 
Thank you
Colin

If your computer is too hot, you need to add better cooling, a better case or better fans. 

What components are in this computer and what are you considering too hot?

I'm not actually trying to be as grumpy as it seems.

I will find your mentions of Ikea or Gnome and I will /s post.

Why is the 5800x so hot?

Huge fans that operate at low RPM, if the client is a silence freak, go full 90's and have a huge filtered intake with like a 200mm fan and maybe like a 420mm AIO for the CPU? If size of the case isn't a problem, go to the extremes with ULTRA COOLING. OR if speed is the only thing that matters, have it built in something like a box with some acoustic fiber like mineral wool to block sound from escaping and have the high quality super quiet fans pulling air into the 480/420 rad?

The rendering computer in my home is a i9 10900k with a RTX 3090. It is a lot more quite than my Ryzen build so it got the job.

 

When I did 3D for a living and did CPU renders I only used air coolers. The last ones I used were Noctua NH-D15s.

I have one idling about 3ft away from me and I can't hear it at all. About 10ft away is a 5900x with a 360mm AIO and it is loud.

Thanks for the replies. I have a few friends that render, one who creates a psd files in the gigabytes. They all complain about the noise when their pc is running as fast although thermal throttling eventually slows things down. And that’s the issue—go fast, but quietly.

 

I watched this video from PC Builder in which he said there isn’t much difference between a gaming pc and a pc that would be suitable for creatives: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0uAeNHLLuAovOTHI-aOZiQ. Of course, he’s missed the point when it comes to noise. I’ve yet to find a build that meets the objective of maximum performance and acceptable decibels. 

 

Imagine you’re commissioned to build such a pc. What would the most important components be? For what it’s worth, I’ve not seen a video of Linus building a suitable pc for  Creatives who renders all day.
