Noisy PC fans and very hot air outake from case

[tROVLET]

Hi guys, First of all forgive my english

 

So the problem is whenever I play games (this time witcher 3) my PC gets very noisy and the upper fan is outake is realsing alot of hot air 

My specs are -

I5 4690K

8GB RAM

GTX 1070 G1

The case is NZXT S340

motherboard if it matters is asus z97-k

 

so I ran the MSI after burner and here are the stats -

I would actually classify that as normal ... what are the temps???

[GDRRiley]

heat out the back is good.

What is your CPU cooling situation?

 

And heat out of the back is probably mostly the GPU, which is normal.

Of the cpu max is 80C

I have stock intel cooler

but It doenst reach more than 80C

that is ok.

So the noise is ok? What can I do it get rid of it?

you can get a aftermarket cooler.

what is recommended for silence in range of 50$?

like @GDRRiley said, seems normal.

 

If it's too loud you can buy a better cooler than the Intel stock one, it does get noisy when the fan spins up!

You can get really nice air coolers for half of your budget for $40. But if you want to get a better solution you can go for water cooling with Corsair Hydro Series H55 Quiet Edition Liquid CPU Cooler.

while I agree it's a great unit, it's slightly over OP's budget. But I know it can sometimes be found on sale for a little less, so that's an option!

You can probably get a water cooler for 50 USD

I'm a bit surprised. I'm running an AMD build only, and its pretty cool for only using air coolers

No idea why hehe

I'm not sure mine should be like this, it wasnt noisy as that couple of months ago

I'm a bit late to the party, but the Corsair Hydro H55 is an excellent cooler for about 50-60 USD. It keeps my i7 6700K running at 35C max under load.

Oh my... apperantly nobody did see the cheaper and even more important, the core issue here..

 

1.)

A stock CPU cooler means stock thermal paste and those really degrade fast. If the CPU is older than 1year, thats a very likely cause.

So just exchanging the thermal paste on the CPU, especially with a quality one, can allready make a big difference on temps & noise from the fan and will only cost 5$.

(In fact I just recently did that for my GF's PC, and in that case for an Intel 35xx something with a stock cooler, it went from overheating(88-90°C) on stock settings while playing WoW to maintaining below 82°C in prime95 with a 200 or 300mhz OC on each core, and all that was done by the thermal paste)

 

2.)

If we assume a default setup for the case, this is what it ships with according to newegg:

Front: 2 x 120mm or 2 x 140mm (not included)
Top: 1 x 120mm or 1 x 140mm (one 120mm included)
Rear: 1 x 120mm (one included)

 

Which means that by default the case does not have front intake fans, at the most it has a single top intake, combine that with a sidepanel that does not have intake/exhaust holes and there goes your airflow.

 

Looking at the afterburner screenshots @tROVLET provided, the GPU has to run at 2300 fan RPM to maintain 74°C and thats with constant alt-tabbing every few minutes.

http://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/gigabyte_geforce_gtx_1070_g1_gaming_review,9.html

Here the card OP has is listed with 67°C tops and 2100RPM. Since its a tripple cooler setup that should really tell you a lot about the airlow going on in the case, which is none.

 

 

 

So the core issue here is not to fix with a new CPU heatsink.

I mean yea, obviously a aftermarket CPU cooler will be quieter and provide better cooling for the CPU but if the GPU hits 60% fanspeed just after a few minutes of gaming, after an hour that would easily go up to 65 if not 70% and that is about as loud as a intel stock fan will get. So afterall it will just shift the problem.

 

The better solution would be to create proper airflow into the case first, get 1 or 2 additional fans for the front (probably around 10$ each) and/or shift the top fan to the front as intake. Depending on how well that works, you can still look into a aftermarket CPU cooler, however be aware here: if your airflow is bad, which it is at it seems, getting a better CPU cooler result in more heat pushed into the system which will then in turn make your other components heat up more.
