Howmany decibles is bearable for you? (Cpu fans...)
Im going to downgrade my fan so i can hear myself think any idea in a range of decibles i should aim for i was thinkin about 27-30?

 

[yakko]

I can handle 30 but I would prefer 10.

 

[Hanpan]

I can handle about 40 rated whihc would be about 65 or so in real life. THe delta screamers are definatly too loud.

 

[chiwawa626]

movin down from the 27cfm ystech and i moved down from that from the pabst 33cfm 43dba and before that 38cfm delta "fat ass"

 

[Elledan]

Around 30 it becomes irritating. 10 is nice, but lower is always better. Better get started on that water-cooled HS

 

[ricerx]

about 30-35 tops for me

 

[DJediMaster]

35 sounds good. It also depends on what kind of noise...

 

[SinNisTeR]

60

 

[chiwawa626]

im scared of water cooling
heh just dont wanna mess with it...I got a 60mm to 80mm fan adapter off ebay for 5.25 shipped, a nice one too...thinkin of buying a panaflo around 30decibles...
