Hi,

 

so i built my PC yesterday - and in my opinion the Case Fans are way to loud.. i have the Phanteks Enthoo Evolv ATX with  PH-F140SP FANS...

 

I set them in BIOS to run at 10% (via PWM hub) ... but i still think theyre way to loud, is that normal?

modern fans can take a "complete stop" just fine, just put your finger on the individual fans to *GENTLY* slow them down to a stop, that'll single it out to a single one, all, or none at all.

 

you mentioned an AiO watercooler, are you sure its not the pump you are hearing?

Listen to that..

If I remember correctly, the stock case fans aren't pwm and you should control them with dc.

If you ever need help with a build, read the following before posting: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/3061-build-plan-thread-recommendations-please-read-before-posting/
