What rpm would be normal for my cpu fan?

[jumbaka]

Hello, I have recently changed my mobo, and after turning everything on my computer was noisy as hell. I went to the bios settings and my cpu fan was set to max, I switched it to auto and currently it spins on 2000 rpm. Cpu temp is around 30-35C when just browsing the web. The fan is still quite noisy for me, I would want to decrease the rpm, but I dont know what would be the normal ones for my cpu. I am using the standart cpu fan which came with my intel i5 3570.
Sorry for the bad english.

I've never changed the fan speed setting for my CPU. I've always left it Auto, which I suggest you do that. The reason being, you aren't monitoring the CPU all the time. Even if you have monitoring tool, you clearly cannot watch it when surfing or playing games. If you want a quieter computer, you should invest in an aftermarket cooler. They are far superior to the standard CPU in cooling and quieter.

What computer case do you have?

It usually depends on the size of the fan. Bigger fans can spin slower and move the same amount of air as a smaller fan with higher RPMs. The stock coolers are usually the least efficient both in cooling and noise.

In my system, I cannot really say I can notice my i5-3470's fan even at 2200RPM... the only thing I can really hear from my PC is the front intake fans.

My PC case is cooler master 430 elite black. The noisy is very annoying.

Just double checking, are you sure it's the CPU cooler? If so, the case supports a CPU cooler height of 6.4" (164mm).

Yeah my stock intel cooler is also running at 2k constantly.

make sure intel speed step is enabled in BIOS .

That will turn the processor speed down , heat will go down and the fan should slow down too

Your BIOS should also give you options to reduce fan speed range . Dont let max temp get over about 60 C and you will be fine

This isnt a solution but my cpu fan min speed is 4532 rpm and its max is 4587 rpm!
for some reason ibuypower put the loudest possible cpu fan on mine, but that was the way my dad ordered it. i have a normal 4.2ghz cpu but i underclocked it to 3gb still fan is loud af.

I wouldn't mind joining in on the fan (I'm hilarious, I blow...)!

Anyways, my CPU fan is running at around 4000 RPM. It is a single 120mm fan installed onto a 240mm radiator which cools the CPU using coolant. Could it be that a one fan simply needs to spin that fast in order to cool efficiently? Or could I do some tweaking within BIOS to set it to a lower speed?
