Hi!

I have a SFF system I built with the following specs:
Core i5 6500 (stock cooler)
PNY Anarchy 2 x 8 gb
EVGA Z170 Stinger
Crucial BX 200
EVGA Hadron Air
Gigabyte R9 380 G1 Gaming

Whenever I play CS:GO, my fans all max out and noise levels go way up. CS:GO is on max settings on a 1080p monitor. Are there any things I can do to fix this?


Bonus Question :)D) : Will a 37mm thick fan fit on top of the drive cage on the hadron air? If you don't know, that's fine, I just want to lower my noise.

Thanks!
 
Do you know if it is the gpu or cpu fan that is running up so fast? You would benefit from a new cpu cooler that fits in your case. Also, check your BIOS and see what the fan ramps are set to do. They may just be set too high. Check your temps with CPUID HWMonitor too.

My motherboard has a onboard CPU temp monitor, and when playing CS:GO it routinely goes above 60 C. Should I be concerned?
