I See OnlyFans

At a certain point, the sheer amount of fan housing mass is blocking air flow more than anything else.

There are like 650 USD/EUR worth of fans there

"Do you want a PC with your fans?"

Nothing compares to the original casefancasefancase.

I think I have that same CPU cooler

[–] Hovenko@iusearchlinux.fyi 2 points 2 years ago

What cooler? I see only fans.

Forget about jet engines. This thing probably sounds more like a helicopter at close range! The ironic part of this is that it could actually lead to power supply issues, which can be just as bad...

[–] Rednax@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

For shits amd giggles, I put a couple of industrial 10W fans in my PC once. That probably still made more noise than this. It also created so much overpressure that I could feel air escaping the tower from every little hole or crack. You could hold a piece of paper to the side of the pc, and see it moving because of the air escaping between the side panel and the main hull.

But if these are normal fans (max maybe 1,5W), then the amount of power drawn will be the same as a couple of hardrives.

Luckily you can get this fractal case with sound damping side panels! It probably sounds like a helicopter in a subway tunnel below you with the panels on.

[–] lapommedeterre@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Need fans to cool the fans.

The quantum computers are looking pretty cool imho

[–] ray1992xd@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

At this point that is a freezer, not a PC.

[–] Hovenko@iusearchlinux.fyi 7 points 2 years ago

A shitty freezer that does not go below room temps.

[–] Jumper775@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Unfortunately I can see your case, this means you don’t have enough fans. Fix it.

And presto - the drone bot was born.

Still quieter than my PC

[–] brokenlcd@feddit.it 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

i genuinely have a pc with a 30 cm fan from a welder bolted to a hole in the side of the case, it runs at 240v and it's one of the loudest things i own, but at least i passed from being continuously thermal throttling to running at a reasonable temperature...

[–] Loulou@lemmy.mindoki.com 1 points 2 years ago

The fan motor itself heats up the air ...

Cool though !
