    4790k, one of the longest living processors out there. Still running one in one of our guest machines!

    I use a Fractal Design Meshify C myself, and a Noctua D15. Whatever the quietest Corsair fans are, got five. It’s completely silent.

    My partner has the same setup, but their machine is quite a bit louder. I think it’s cuz we went with that 35USD ninja… blade… whatever cooler that people recommended for its similar performance to the D15, but 100 less. That thing is quite loud, though.

    Before I redid my machine I was using an AIO, a nice Corsair platinum one, and three LL120s. MF was loud as shit. When the AIO spun up, I had to turn my volume up.

    When I made all of my changes I DID also put a completely unnecessary 1KW Platinum PSU in there, which has a “fan doesn’t run” mode.
