I got a computer with a loud fan - the fan noise is 27-47 but it always goes to 47. Its a homemade built computer. The processor is 478 chipset processor (Pentium 4). The computer fan is so loud. I've looked for fans replaced it and it is still loud. I dont wanna go through the hassel of buying online because if these are loud, I'll have to send them back etc.
What can I do to soundproof my case for a low price or a cheap home-made way. I don't necessarily want to replace my case. But are there some cheap homemade ways to make my pc case quiet? If you know of FOR SURE a quality silent fan that is actually quiet please let me know as well.
Buy a better fan that runs silently.
Otherwise you could build a housing with some type of foam or sound dampening material lining it. This, as many know, is not a really good idea, it cuts down on airflow around the case of the PC. This will increase heat.
