Well, it depends on how loud your fans are and how sensitive to sound you are. I believe your CPU TJmax is about where you have it at 100%, or close. It's a lot easier to keep temps from getting that high than it is to cool it off after it has gotten that high. At any rate, I'm sure that is better than the stock setting. Just watch your CPU temps, and if that setting does not keep it down considerably, raise your fan curve until it does. If it takes raising it too much, I would consider, changing thermal paste and even brand of fan you are using. There are some fans that are very good and pretty quiet. But, are pretty expensive for a fan. So, just play it by ear and get a good monitoring program that works well for you. I just would like to keep the temps down for a while to rule out high CPU temps as the cause of your BSODs. Also, you should never use more than 1 CPU temp monitoring program at a time. More than 1 program reading the same sensor, can give inaccurate results.
