    Phenom II stock cooler noise reduction


    hey, i want to reduct with speedfan the RPM of the CPU cooler because its too noisy
    is it safe? i mean what will happen with the CPU except that it will be hotter than before? cause its really annoying and thought reducing rpms will help my problem

    Make sure the fan and heat sink is clean and nothing is hitting it. If that checks out replace the cpu cooler fan or the cpu cooler and fan.
    Doing anything to allow the cpu to run hotter is not a option.

    Are your CPU temps OK? Should be maxing out about 60 degrees celcius. If not, I'd recommend returning to stock core speeds (if you've already overclocked). Otherwise the stock fan/heatsink just isn't good enough for your needs :)
    Apart from that though, to be honest I would look around for an aftermarket cooler. Even cheap ones are better that stock heatsinks AMD supply you with. If you have enough money, the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO+ is a great, high performance low-cost heatsink. That cost about $30-35 and about £25-£30. Of course other options are sufficient too, I'd recommend spending at least $10 on a heatsink, they will have better fans that are quieter :)
    Hope this helps!

    All those temps are very high to me I have had 2 different phenom II chips and mine never went above 45c even with heavy gaming you need to really find out why your cooling isn't as effective as it can be

    To be honest I would just swap it out also if you are going for a better heatsink you can put your own after market fans on it because most coolers come with half a** fans to begin with

    If you can give us an idea of the space you have in your case to its side panel and a picture or two maybe the best way to go is with a cooler upgrade to get the lowest sound for the greatest cooling. Many great air and sealed water solutions without breaking the bank. Maybe your case fans, filters and such need cleaning and a re-think?

    I would consider a nice inexpensive solution like this as well add a front case fan.

    this one is cheaper at us
    GELID Solutions Tranquillo CC-TranQ-01-A 120mm Hydro Dynamic CPU Cooler - Newegg.com

    isnt better? or that hyper 212 could handle a 2nd fan too?
