Just replace the stock fans to like Noctua NF-A14 (black version) and it should run dead silent

Actually the IndustrialPPC fans are very noisy and actually designed to work in servers. I recommend the LTT edition ones, or the normal poop brown ones.

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here

Its smong the best air coolers. Its performance is about same with 240/280mm AIOs. Hoogle some reviews of you are in doubt.

My H105 is very noisy, just wondering how a Noctua NH D15 compares....

Just change it for the noctua nh-d15 because there isnt many AOI that can beat it. Even if they can, its only by a few degree which makes it pointless considering how noisy those pumps are.

There's still pump noise but replacing the fans is a cheaper solution is the OP doesn't consider the pump too loud.

They're designed for rough conditions and not necessarily servers. For servers, there are faster, louder, and better performing fans.

My H110i GT recently had its pump die and I replaced it  with the Noctua NH D15S. I even had 2000rpm Noctua iPPCs on the AIO, and it was still hotter and noisier than my current set up.

 

The stock Corsair fans with the AIO were horrifically loud, and at high speeds even had a rattle. Terrible quality.

I would never go back to a CLC AIO again. They're far louder, cost more, and have extra points of failure.
I also never judge a cooler based on gaming temps, as those temps vary wildly and are never truly a max load temp.
 

The NH D15S also only comes with a single fan, and better PCIe/RAM clearance than the normal D15. I have found it more than adequate for cooling.

 

At Stock under AIDA64 these are my temps 5820K

Here are my temps with a mild 4Ghz Overclock on my 5820K
