You'll struggle to fit any fans into that gap. What's the thickness? They are an openframe design which means you're unlikely to find something the same. Instead, have you got space on the outside of the heatsink? Then just zip tie on a 120mm fan and that should do the trick. As for the high pitch ...

Hello there, I have a Palit GTX 560ti card which uses a zerotherm coolmax 4000 cooler. I’ve bought the card second hand after reading the forums that the fan is near silent when idlle, but the fans are very noisy, I also hear a strange pitch occationaly...I’t probably was damaged during transport.. ...

hello there again :) for info, I've replaced my PSU with a Seasonic x760 hybrid psu, when not under hevy load, the fans keep turned off. I've covered my hdd with a Silentmaxx HD-Silencer. and I got a new GPU, the Palit GeForce GTX 560 Ti Twin Light Turbo 1 GB which appeared to be the quietest 560 ca...

Why not take incremental steps? Fix the PSU and HDD, then see what you can hear.

you're right

Thanks guys. the Seasonic X-650 looks great too, I'll see for how much I can sell my hx620 to get the seasonic instead, If it wont sell for a good price I'll go with the fan swap recommendend, thanks CA_Steve. My CPU is the i7 2600K on a Asus p8z68 deluxe. well you're probably right with the gpu usa...

sorry if I didn't formulate my questions correctly, I'm new to the forum.

Anybody any advice please?

thanks

Hi all, i'm in the process of finishing my new build intended mostly for audio/video editing (with linux software for both tasks). I'm not sure if that's such a good idea at all as audio editing requires a silent machine, but video needs a hot graphic card which while actively cooled will never be s...

so it won't be as difficult as i thougth should i also consider the rpm? If i put in the 1150 rpm fan, which with it's advertised16dBA seems pretty quiet,could't it be insufficient at some point? Thanx

hi all, i've recently bought a secondhand hx620 psu which i thought to be a perfect silent one. However, it seems pretty noisy - as if you could hear som ticking-clicking several times a second. So i'm thinking to replace the fan. Could somebody recommend a silent 120mm fan that can be used in a psu...

Hi, I'm looking for the most silent cooler for my i7 2600 (or 2700) inside a Silverstone lc17 case. There is approx 140mm headroom for a cooler - I'm having a hard time finding a decent tower cooler with these specs, the only solutions i've found so far are the Scythe Grand Kama Cross and the Cooler...
