CPU Fan really loud?

sonsilv222 · Apr 3, 2015

Hey my CPU Fan is really loud, is there anyway I can make it silent?

Onus · Apr 3, 2015

Unplug it...

More seriously, which one is it? How old is it? What CPU and motherboard do you have?

Try setting it to a quiet mode or whatever your computer calls it.

It's a AMD FX 4130 and my motherboard is a asus m5a78l-m lx3

And I have got it set to quiet mode, along with that I'm running speedfan

AMD stock coolers aren't that good, typically barely able to do the job, and as you've discovered, noisy as they struggle to do so. You will probably want to replace it. Avoid the [awwwk!] Hyper212 EVO [awwwk!] parrots, and select from http://www.tomshardware.com/faq/id-2478892/alternatives-hyper-212-evo-budget-cooling.html for much better bang/buck.

Go for a Artic FReezer A30 , I use it and without a doubt really quite when IDLE and underload. And great cooling . I get aroun 65 degrees while gaming.

sonsilv222 :

That one is compatible with your CPU's socket, just make sure it will fit in your case. If your case is too narrow to fit a 120mm cooler, you may have to use a 92mm cooler instead. It will be louder, and not cool quite as well, but still much better than stock.

If that is the case as Onus says you will need a 92mm and the Arctic Freezer 13 is a solid choice and a trustes make .
