Basically just the CPU fan, case, and PSU (if you’re lucky). If someone can figure out how to get Doom running on just those 3 things, young people will be able to ascend.

    I’ve been using Arctic fans. Are Noctua fans super amazing in comparison?

    I built a CR Box fan too using 5 Arc Fans, but seen builds with Noctua fans to make it super silent.

      I have been rocking the same noctua fan/cooler fan for +10 years.

      If you still have the receipt they send you adapter kits for new processors for free.

      I also use Arctic fans, and they’re by far the quietest, best-performing fans I’ve ever used. Equivalent Noctua fans are like 4-8 times more expensive, so unless they can also give handies or something, I can’t imagine them actually being worth the price.
