High static fans for h115i

Why do you say that? Have you had experience with these fans yourself, or did you just make an 'educated guess' from rumors.

I have 6 of these fans (PWM) in my case, and they are whisper quiet when the PC is in idle. Even at full CPU load the noise is comfortable. It all depends on how well you manage your fan curve.

Yes, I've had 3-5 of Noctuas Industrial NF-F12 PWM's and they were loud as hell when I first powered up my PC. But I do agree, when booted up etc they are as silent as the original NF-F12's, which are awesome.

Maybe that's the case, but I noticed that everytime I powered on my PC, they all went to full 100% and it sounded like an airplane were in my room.

Since they my Corsair AF's and SP's have worked flawlessly, both in idle and load, they are quiet

Setting a manual PWM control within your BIOS (Asus boards do this best) should fix that. I never use software for PWM control, only BIOS and it works much better. This could be the reason you experience this, if your BIOS had the PWM set to auto or turbo and once booted into the Windows, software would lower the rpm. So naturally since the fans are max 2000 RPM, it would sound like an airplane since the BIOS just goes full speed.

But really... How often do you reboot for that to be a problem?

Thats exactly why it does that. Your bios will ramp up the fans to full until the software kicks in to tell the bios "wooah now, slow down, this guy only wants 20% pwm"

Ewwpph..... Never knew you could PWN fans in the BIOS. Yeah, I have ASUS X99 Strix motherboard. But currently using Corsair Commander Mini to control it all.

Never had or thought of BIOS, as didn't know it could be done lol.

AI suite can do it too.

If you are interested, just go into the BIOS and look for it. Can be named a number of things, but if it says fan control, it's probably that. Have a play with it and see how it goes.
