could barely understand what u sayiing man

wat fan u using?? wat model? wat brand? and wat size?

I assume is casing fan or processor fan. Please check for dirt around the fan blades. If it's clean, most probably is the fan's bearings.

25cm fan. . . impressive. . .

go spend more money to buy those branded fan, sure quiet one!!

How fast is your fan spinning? 7000rpm?

If it is spinning fast then of course there will be noise generated by the wind.
Also it can make your case vibrate as well, you can search for the forumer darkages who is doing a bulk order on silicon gel fan vibration dampeners.

Which fans are making the noise? Case fans? Processor heatsink fan?

i think u didnt screw it correctly ...check and c

try adding some thermal paste on your processor before securing the heatsink. maybe the one that came with your machine already worn out

that 25 cm ur casing measurement or fan measurement? sure must be a helluva big fan to be 25 cm man..


edit by sniper: bolded instead of "coolant gel"

25cm fan - 250mm fan ?

wow thats big...

Maybe the noise is coming from the whooshing of the wind, or the fans bearing noise... i dunt know if it helps or not, sometimes i like to lubricate my fan's bearing with some grease or car engine oil...

GOOD LUCK.

Replace the fan.

Wootage....25CM fan....
Is that the top casing fan or wat?

Change to silentcool fan?

25cm??? holy crap, i never seen before....

are you sure 25cm??.. afaik, the bigger the fan, the less noise they make.. are you using a performance fan that is running at high rpm?.. then for sure alot of noise.. maybe you could get a fan controller to lower the rpm.. that should lower the noise..

oh ok... i go n buy the fan controller...
wat type should i buy?

fan controller?? try the musketerr 1... about RM45 at cycom..

pointless. musketeer only controls 1 fan and not a very good job at controlling it either.

and the rest of the things are useless. yeah i have 2 units of that. for bling bling purpose only.

my trusty fan controller is still Vantec Nexus.

EDITED : btw other than the side panel - where else could you fit a 25cm fan.

250mm fan?? OMG, its almost the length of the long ruler.. Im really a frog inside the well la. Havent see and hear that b4... It come together with the casing? May i noe wut casing model r u using?? I really wana have a look at it la...

sunbeam got one oso which im eyeing before...

Check and see if the casing fan is working properly. Normally its not that load. Get a dampener if you need. Well i have tried to DIY some dampener my self. Get some thin foam and use double side tape or any adhesive and stick at places where you think the noise is.

im blur actually..25cm fan? i dun think any case can fit in 25cm fan at the back..

n wat casing is it? TT? fans from TT casing is noisy..jus change the fans..get some panaflo for good airflow n still silent

I'm using a i-cute casing
model is 0508ULA-5G1-BS...

i jus a newbie men.... the Quote thing need to do some experiment 1st

try use oil lo inside the fan or used the scilicon fan damper ! hope this helps!

vantec nexus is good, unfortunatly no where to be found in lowyat somehow, i also want to find a pair of them............

I just want to see your 25cm fan. Mine to show your fan to us see?

mine I-Cute casing also have a 25cm fan at side panel there ....

The question: why my casing fan so noisy?

The answer: Because it's not silent, that's why.

Just joking.

Well try DIY pieces of rubber shaped 1 cent coin, cut a hold in it put your screws in each of the screw. that should dampen the sound abit..Well at least thats what i did

DIY stand for do it yourself
btw u can try get sunbeam controller fan..really nice..owned it..can control 4fan with led panel or mayb u can customise fan controller like hollowbean << HERE >>

after reading this page,i was thinking 'OMG..how did he place that 25cm fan at the back..he must be a great modder!'

dude...try getting another fan...maybe it would reduce the noise..silent fan i mean.

its hard to get a fan that size as its not that common and hard to find...
btw, before doing adding any dampener or wutsoever, wut kind of noise is it?
fan spinning noise, or the vibration noise??
if fan spinning noise, then try to clean the fan thoroughly and apply grease...
if vibration noise, add dampener, tighten the screw more....
