    Default Building a PC?

    so i was building my new gaming rig right... and I figured, why not get the best of the best shit right... so i got a Thermaltake Volcano 12+ Extreme edition right.. and i figured... its ratest the highest and cooling and shit... My old computer setup had a Zalman Ultra Quiet all copper heatsink/fan... and that was rated second best (and i think it still is)... well that shit is SILENT... and that was one of the cons listed on the Thermaltake... so i figured, who cares its just a little noise. My old system, sometimes you could'nt tell if it was on or off... now on this setup... HOLY FUCKIN SHIT... it sounds like a fuckin leafblower.... shit is LOUD, i can hear it from outside my room.

    word of advice... GO WITH ZALMAN!! lol
