Hello good people. I've recently built a new PC a month ago and I would like to know your opinion on my build. I'm already looking to upgrade some parts lol. My PC gets loud when I game so I'm thinking about maybe replacing my AMD Ryzen 1600 stock cooler for a water liquid pump or something. Well here is my part list and please give me a rating or some tips/advice to make it better. I appreciate your time and opinion. Thank you!

It's a good build... there's really nothing you should upgrade unless you're not getting the experience you want.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

I'm only thinking about upgrading the CPU cooler to a water pump for now. My fans get really loud whenever I'm gaming. Is there another solution without having to upgrade to a water cooler?

If you want silence, I highly recommend getting an air cooler over a AIO liquid cooler. Less moving parts = less noise produced.

 

Adjusting your fan curve might help as well.

How might I adjust my fan curve? I'm not that tech savvy. I appreciate your help. Thanks

If you go into the BIOS, there should be an option there to adjust the fan curve.
