Issue - My pc is quiet when idle. and was quiet when i had my GT 430 card. Now that ive upgraded to a GTX 550Ti ive ran into a bit of an issue with my cpu fan. whenever i turn on a game that i played with my 430gt all i hear is a jet engine revving up in my case. i checked my graphics card and its quiet up until 2700rpm so i knew the gpu wasnt an issue. now i go look at the speeds on my cpu and its at 6000rpm. is there any possible way to reduce the noise? i hate sitting next to a jet engine especially in battlefield lol. thanks for all replies :)
