Re: Guess I'll be the first... quiet CPU coolers

I cannot recommend a particular cooler fan but one thing I have noticed over the years is this: Dust makes a fan louder over time. Dust clings onto the fan blades and eventually throws off the balance of the fan to the point where is starts to resonate or makes a whining or whizzing noise. This noise is far louder than the fan itself. Get a case that has built in air filters or forever battle this problem.
