Hi all,
I just finished my first build and I'm overall really satisfied with most everything. My comp boots up in about 8 seconds, and games and browsing are amazing on 1440p.
However, my computer is a lot louder than I expected. It's not LOUD per se, but I was under the---perhaps false---impression that it would be silent cause I went the r4 case.
I have the stock case fans and the stock heat sink. I don't OC or SLI and I'm on a budget so I haven't invested in an after market heat sink. I have a GTX 660 Asus which is supposed to be famous for being really quiet.
Should I buy new case fans and a new heat sink? Which one first? Or both? Any suggestions. I don't need much performance, just absolute quietness. I use this mostly as (overwpowered) a media center.
