Thompsonhunt Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 When I built my computer, and decided I was going to get the H80i water cooler for the known power hog, FX 8320, I suppose I was so stoked about getting the water cooler that I didn't realize how god damn loud it is when running at 100% I've never had luck with Win8 and Corsair Link. From the beginning, controlling the cooler was absolutely impossible but the sound of the computer didn't bother me whatsoever. Fast forward to now, and I'm not sure what sparked my interest on the fans, but I decided to find a fix for the fan speed. The fix, which was simply running CL in Compatibility Mode (Win7) and as Admin, allowed me switch the fans up. I decided on "Quiet Mode" and HOLY ****!!! You have no idea how quiet my room is now that I'm not having to hear the constant hum whilst surfing the net, or watching YouTube videos. God damn...

jameyscott Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 It's interesting you say that, because that happened to me. I said noise won't bother me! I just want my rig to run cooler! Fast forward to now and I really am starting to care about how loud my rigs are. Sure, I'll run high RPM fans at 100% when benching when sound doesn't matter, but when I'm gaming or video editing, I want to be able to control my fans. I can't wait to see what the Corsair Commander mini does when it comes out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
