Hey guys I'm building a new gaming pc and I'm looking for suggestions or comments about it. I'm aiming for silence with this setup, and I'm running an i7-6700 and gtx 1070.
Cpu Cooler:CPU Cooler: NoFan CR-80EH (Once I need more intense cooling I'll upgrade to a noctua but this is rated for 80TDP and the cpu is rated at 65TDP so it should keep it cool while not producing any noise)(and I really like how this would look in the windowed case I've chosen)
Case: Corsair 400c (I love the way this case looks and it seems to me like it is setup very well for optimizing case airflow)
Case Fans: Front intake 3 120mm Enermax Twister Pressure (23-80 Cfm, 14-25 Db), Top exhaust 140mm Noctua N-A15 PWM(?-68 Cfm, 13.8-19.2 Db) 140 mm Corsair AF140L (?-67 Cfm, ?-?Db assuming 25), Rear Exhaust 120mm AF120L(?-65 Cfm, ?-? Db assuming 25) (So first of all I've done countless hours of research on silent case fans that deliver strong cooling power and this is what I ended up with. The two corsair fans come with the case and they will eventually be replaced by another noctua and enermax but I just wanted all the spaces full for now. I've found some Db calculators online and at full power for all the fans, which I sincerely doubt would happen, the max Db is 32.21. Now according to most of the what i could find about Db levels this is somewhere between background city noise and the rustling of leaves. That being the worst case scenario I assume the fans should be running at no more than 50% speed for basically anything I do so I think this is a pretty solid airflow setup to compliment my fanless cooler)
