Hey everyone,
I've recently been looking into my fans because I'm finding them to be annoyingly loud and I've pinpointed that the loud fan that's causing me these issues is the single stock corsair fan that came with the H80i v2 that I have on the back of my radiator and plugged into the CPU_FAN header. What I want to know is what is the fan speed based off of, is it the CPU temp? Should I get a new fan that is quieter that I can fit in the same place, or should I adjust the fan curve? And if I adjust the fan curve can anyone recommend what I can adjust it to? I don't want to cause any damage here but the noise is too much so I want to do something about it, especially now while I have the time.
Thank you for any answers
