Right now I have a kind of bad CPU air heatsink. It is an ID-Cooling 902X. I bought it for about 10 dollars. The problem I have with this is the fan clicks and the insanely loud fan noise when playing games like Fortnite, CSGO, GTA V- is it normal for it to be so loud? It sounds like it's over 65db!
I am thinking of getting a Cooler Master Masterliquid 120 LITE. It is about 40 dollars or more in price. I am on a tight budget btw. I am aware that an AIO can be louder than an air heatsink, however, since the cooling on an AIO is slightly better than an air one, maybe it will require less work to cool my CPU? Or maybe my cpu heatsink is really bad and that's why it has to put so much work to cool my CPU. An answer would be highly appreciated, thanks.
