In order to fight this enemy, it is necessary to better know it.Clearly, it is imperative to find an answer to this simple question what is noise?
Then we will identify the different components of a PC likely to generate noise pollution.Once this work is finished, we will make an overview of tips and actions to be carried out to make a PC quieter.We will also see that noise is a real problem to the point that some manufacturers like Be Quiet!specialized in the field in order to offer equipment thought for silence.
This file was ordered to us by Be Quiet!.He was treated independently.The tests and content have been fully carried out and written by our editorial staff.

The noise
For this file, we consider noise as a nuisance.This posture allows us to define it as a more or less significant discomfort according to an intensity.It then becomes a disturbing element during a specific action.
This is unpleasant and unwanted pollution impacting an activity.For example, a computer with significant ventilation can prevent listening to music or watching a movie.Its operating noise can disrupt a videoconferencing, a video game part or the office automation.However, noise only matters in a general sound atmosphere.For example, it is difficult to perceive a PC as "noisy" by using it in front.
This pollution is a real problem with our modern societies.Noise has health consequences.If exposure to a strong sound level can cause trauma (partial or total hearing loss, tinnitus ...) we also have consequences with levels without danger for hearing.
On this subject Wikipedia precise
In the case of a PC, it is unlikely that its noise pollution will reach a sound level capable of damaging the hearing.We have moderate noise pollution capable, however, of becoming problematic in the face of particularly and annoying activities in the long term.In all of our boxes, ventirads, power supplies or even fans, we offer an assessment of this pollution using a soundometer.
Placed about twenty centimeters from the product, our device measures the sound pressure by expressing it in DB (A), abbreviation of "decibel weighting A".This unit measures not a physical sound level in decibels but a physiological sound level taking into account the sensitivity of the human ear.It thus expresses an overall sound level taking into account the sensitivity of the ear to high frequencies.
Our laboratory is in a room with the controlled environment whose general sound level is at 34.5 dB (a).This is a very low value comparable to that of a silent bedroom.We believe that the 40 dB (A) bar is a first threshold if the central unit is positioned on the desktop.At this level of noise pollution, the PC is no longer silent but is not noisy.Its operation is audible but acceptable for different tasks such as office automation, game and multimedia.. A 45 dB (a), la situation se complique avec un bruit de fonctionnement clairement identifiable.The PC is audible and can ask to adapt in certain circumstances.At 50 dB (A) and more, we have a noisy PC causing significant noise pollution disturbing all activities.
A silent pc gaming is possible!
A computer is the association of many components.We find a motherboard, a processor, a Ventirad, a graphic solution, the RAM and a storage unit.All this little world is powered by a power supply while the whole takes place in a box.
This list offers the most common items.It is possible to add an optical reader, a card reader, a rheobus and many other things like a watercooling for example.

The sound of a PC has many origins.The most important are three.
On the one hand, we have mechanical components.These are peripherals with a movement during their operation.This includes hard drives, fans and optical players.The second source is more sneaky since it is linked to architecture ensuring air circulation.A Ventirad consists of a radiator and a fan.If the latter can cause a rotation noise, the air it propels through the many fins can also cause noise pollution.We find the same remark for a case with its ventilation (its fans) on one side and on the other its architecture ensuring air circulation.
Finally, the last source is linked to vibrations.They are inevitable with a turbinate hard drive at 7200 rpm.Without a minimum of precautions, they can be transmitted to the case and find themselves amplified.
There are different solutions to get a silent PC.First of all, it is imperative to choose certain components in this spirit.For example, Be Quiet!specialized in this field with a catalog offering different devices designed to be silent.This ranges from fuel to ventirads through the boxes.We had the chance to test several products on this subject.
Silent Base 802 de Be QuietThe Silent Base 802 for example is a high -end case oriented silence.Its particularity is to offer versatility and personalization with two facades (closed and metal mesh).
Its equipment includes an internal coating in order to mitigate the noise of mechanical components, three 140 mm silent fans piloted by a rheobus and tips everywhere to limit transfers of vibrations.Our tests reveal a discreet ventilation, not exceeding by the 40 dB (A) mark where the average of our files devoted to the boxes is 41.5 dB (a).Its equipment has stifled the noise from our reference configuration to 43.1 dB (a) against 44 dB (a) on average for all of our tests.
Silent Base 802 de Be Quiet, le test completWe find the same philosophy with the Pure Power 11 FM.Depending on its charge level, this diet is accompanied by noise pollution between 35.6 and 35.8 DB (A).
In parallel, it offers 100% modular management of cables and meets the constraints of the 80plus Gold label.This quality provides him with a high performance allowing him to hunt for energy waste in the form of heat.
Suddenly the cooling needs decrease as well as the actions of its fan.

Ventirad Dark Rock 4 de Be QuietHigh -end, it is equipped with a 135 mm fan while its entirely black dress benefits from caps of heat pipes and a top plate in brushed brushed aluminum.
Its mechanism offers solid cooling capacities which allows Be Quiet!to play on this potential in order to offer a balanced approach by promoting silence.
In the case of a gaming PC, the choice of the graphics card also has all its importance.It is often an important source of nuisance during strong requests.A personalized model signed by an NVIDIA or AMD partner is to be preferred.Again, it is necessary to take a little time by reading different independent tests to know in advance its services in the field.
The good news is that it is often possible to find a silent version regardless of the reference even for high -end models like a RTX 3090.
Knowing that a mechanical element is potentially noisy it is preferable to choose an SSD 2.5 inches instead of a hard drive.If you need a lot of storage space for secondary data a hard drive at 5400 rpm is doing very well.
For flow, an SSD NVME M.2 is to be preferred.
The maintenance of his PC is also important.Dust accumulation is problematic because it prevents it from breathing correctly.Temperatures then tend to increase as well as ventilation.
Remember to clean the different filters from time to time.
The software part can also be used to silence a too present ventilation.Recent motherboards are all able to manage several fans.In this case, remember to perform a calibration of its last to take advantage of different ventilation profiles including a silence mode.

To all this is added the choice of a motherboard with a completely fanless cooling system.For example, if an AMD platform is interested in, favor x570s solutions.They passively ensure the cooling of the chipset.
Conclusion
Noise is not inevitable for a PC.Solutions exist to make its machine quieter and pleasant to use even if its configuration is dedicated to games and creation.One of the most effective actions is to choose certain components in this spirit by looking for the happy medium between performance and silence.You can also look at which products have won our Top Silence Reward.
Top Silence – GinjFoAs we have seen, manufacturers like Be Quiet!specialized in the field.This choice to opt for a case, a diet and a silence -oriented ventirad must be accompanied by other actions.You can favor flash technology for storage and limit the hard drive to 5400 rpm.Likewise, the motherboard must be accompanied by a fan without fan.
If an optical reader is necessary, why not opt for a nomadic model in USB.Placed on the desk and connected externally, it is not likely to vibrate in the box.For his part, the latter can be positioned under the desktop if its connectivity allows.From time to time, also think of cleaning the different dust filters so that ventilation is always optimal.Finally, a calibration of the different fans by the motherboard offers different profiles including a silence mode.

DBMem54 02/09/2021 à 16 h 53 minPersonally I add shock absorbers at the power supply, fans with large diameter and low rotation speed and the use of a rheobus.I find this solution more practical than software management subject to bugs, updates and poorly configured.
