water cooling is loud? :(
I had a big air cooled setup at first but the fins/fans blocked the A slots of ram and it wouldn't boot with just b slots filled in.
Right now the fans are loud as fuck, I was hopping doing water cooling would quiet them down. What should I do to make the computer as quiet as possible?

I see, so fan design is key.
I was messing around with some of the tools on the motherboard, and it looks like my fans run at a constant speed. how do you make them variable speed based on temp? Here is a quick screen capture. CPU is at 100% because Premiere Pro is being a giant asshole to it. Warp Stabalization is a beast.
Also, I have 32gb of ram, but only 16gb is being utilized. best guess is the CPU is limiting the amount of ram it can use? Anybody run into this problem?

The stock corsair fans that came with my cooler were terrible. They did the job, but sounded like a B51 about to take off. I replaced them with the Corsair SP120 quiet series which were much nicer, but do lack a bit on the performance side. The mounting surfaces are rubberized and they include voltage reducers iirc. Oh and I use a fan controller rather than using software I prefer being able to shut off fans at the touch of a button.Last edited by E30_Pare; 12-13-2015, 10:32 PM.

You can probably make it quiet just by getting some decent "noctua" or "be quiet" fans instead of the stock ones.
the 32GB problem is probably your motherboard config, go into bios and check it out. Might not be set up for 32gb.
