How fast do you run your fans?
I cant stand over 700rpm even though reviews and websites say 1000 is "Silent, i cant hear it at all"

I have 4x 120mm 1600 rpm fans in an open case and I can’t hear them at all from a foot away from them. Fans age. Liquid bearings fail. Replace your fans.
I unironically run the three intake fans at the front of my pc at full speed.
The two exhaust fans on the cpu aio radiator (top of the case) are on a fan curve.
The rear exhaust is always at 50%
Pic related, new fans.
Been using noctuas for over 5 years now because 0rpm
all the rpms
600RPM on all my noctua fans, whisper quiet in my define r4
one of the fans on my friends video card has gone to noisy shit
how difficult is it to replace and if the card has multiple fans would it matter if you just ripped the fan off and said fuck it just use the ones left
I've had the same problem with reviewers for years. They always downplay noise because they're so used to having servers instead of speakers.
A good example of this would be the cooler that came with my 1700, while it did do a good job keeping temperatures down - I could hear it from across the room when it was under load. Absolutely unacceptable.
2x140 front intake @650
1x140 back exhaust @700
and
2x140 bottom intake
3x120 top exhaust
controlled by a fan controller in the cd drive bay - usually deactivated and the top covered by the Define R6's case. They're there just in case I want to play vidya and it gets hot.
All 7 of them Noctua Chromax.
Can't hear shit.
How are Corsair ML Fans
It’s getween those and Noctuas but Noctuas are even more expensive and I can’t stand the poo color scheme
