I bought a Zalman CNPS10X Performa Black to go with my Ryzen 9 5900X because it was well reviewed and within my budget. This review particularly makes it seem pretty quiet.
But it's very loud in my setup. Granted, this was my first time installing a custom cooler (usually the CPUs came with cooler attached), so did I do something wrong?
Here's a video + audio of the fan. (The room was dead quiet btw). What could be wrong, do you think?
That's the noise it's making with literally two Edge tabs open and that's it. The noise is always the same, no matter what, it doesn't seem to go up or down.
